1st Army Aviation Helicopters Battalion (1st TEAS)
The emblem of 1st TEAS depictures a griffin (griffon or gryphon Greek: γÏÏψ gryps) which is a legendary creature with the body of a lion and the head and wings of an eagle. As the lion was traditionally considered the king of the beasts and the eagle was the king of the birds, the griffin was thought to be an especially powerful and majestic creature. Griffins are normally known for guarding treasure. In antiquity it was a symbol of divine power and a guardian of the divine.
