The almost iconic symbol of the Czechoslovak Legions is this motif, known as the combined legionary emblem. This motif combines the regional emblems of the historical Czech lands, i.e. Bohemia, Moravia and Silesia, to which it also adds the emblem of Slovakia.

However, the origin of the emblem worn by Czechoslovak legionaries on their caps and Adrian-type helmets is unclear - the original graphic design (or the drawings that inspired it) was probably made by the painter František Kupka, who served in the Czechoslovak Legions in France. In its material form (although slightly different from the final design), the motif of the combined emblem first appeared on the design of the 1918 Czechoslovak War Cross, which was drawn up by the Czech painter Emil Purghart. It is not yet clear who finally modified the emblem into the final form we know from the helmets and caps of the legionaries.
