The 10th Special Forces Group was born in June 1952 at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, it adopted the Trojan Horse Badge in 1955 and began adorning their green berets in 1956. Capt. Roger M. Pezzelle designed the Trojan Horse Badge. Pezzelle, an assistant operations officer and “A” team leader serving with the 10th SFG in Bad Toelz, Germany, found inspiration for his design from a French parachutist badge. Pezzelle created the Trojan Horse Badge and engaged a local jeweler in crafting it. While Pezzelle worked on the badge, 10th SFG Soldier, Capt. Herbert R. Brucker, commissioned Mutze Muller, a German haberdasher to create green berets for 10th SFG. Worn on the beret, the Trojan Horse Badge could be found above an SF Soldier’s left temple.
