The elements of the DHA flag and seal were selected to symbolize the unity of individual services’ medical expertise under one umbrella. According to the Department of the Army’s Institute of Heraldry, in Ft. Belvoir, Virginia, the symbolism of each element is as follows:
- The globe represents the health services that DHA provides for U.S. military men, women, and their families around the world.
- The gold rope and grid lines represent Navy Medicine and its requirement to provide “medical power for naval superiority.”
- The blue on the shield represents Air Force Medicine and pays tribute to their ability to rapidly reach and render “trusted care, anywhere.”
- The maroon on the shield represents Army Medicine and its commitment “to conserve the fighting strength.”
- The eight white stars represent the eight entities served by the Defense Health Agency.
- The staff of Asclepius is a symbol traditionally associated with military medical units.
- The motto, “PRO CURA MILITIS,” translates to “the care of the warrior.”
