Navy Badge: Submarine SSBN Deterrent Patrol - Miniature, Oxidized

The Submarine Warfare Insignia, commonly referred to as "dolphins" or "fish," is a breast insignia worn by enlisted personnel and officers of the United States Navy. Its purpose is to signify qualification in submarine operations. Alongside the Surface Warfare Badge and the Naval Aviator Badge, the Submarine Warfare Insignia is one of the Navy's principal warfare pins. To be eligible to wear this insignia, sailors undergo a rigorous qualification process lasting approximately one year. This process, though distinct for enlisted personnel and officers, comprehensively covers the operational systems of submarines.
