We present several new results which will be of value to theorists working with massive spin-3/2 vector-spinor fields as found, for example, in low and intermediate energy hadron physics and also linearized supergravity. The general lagrangian and propagator for a vector-spinor field in d-dimensions is given. It is shown that the observables of the theory are invariant under a novel continuous symmetry group which is also extended to an algebra. A new technique is developed for exploring the consequences of the symmetry and a previously unknown conserved vector current and charge are found. The current leads to new interactions involving spin-3/2 particles and may have important experimental consequences.
