The days of the galloping horse-and-rider patch, worn by members of Wyoming's Training Center Command, are over. The yellow and light blue colors of the "Pony Express" insignia reference the 1803 Louisiana Purchase, which incorporated most of Wyoming into the Union.
The new patch worn by service members at Camp Guernsey - Wyoming's Joint Training and Command Center - features a statue of a Minuteman surrounded by 13 stars. Some training centers have declined to replace their old patches with the new insignia.
While the galloping horse-and-rider no longer represents Camp Guernsey, it's still affixed to the sleeves of the soldiers assigned to units at the Wyoming Army National Guard’s Joint Forces Headquarters and 94th Troop Command.
