Cavalry or armour in particular. I'm not sure if it corrolates back to WWII or even WWI but post-WWII in Australia the diamond usually represented HQ.

Other door symbols:
  • Triangle - A Squadron / Company
  • Square - B Squadron / Company
  • Circle - C Squadron / Company
  • Rectangle (longest side vertical) - D Squadron / Company
  • Rectangle (longest side horizontal) - Support Company / Battalion
