From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Port Security Pin
The Port Security Badge is a military badge of the United States Coast Guard.
The decoration is presented to service members who complete initial port security training in harbor defense operations and who completes service for a period of twenty-four months with a Port Security Unit (PSU) stationed in the United States, or in a six month deployed status with an overseas PSU. The awardee must also attend one CONUS and one OCONUS exercise or deployment.
The Port Security Badge is issued in two grades, gold for officers and silver for enlisted. The badge itself consists of two seahorses, riding on waves, facing back to back with the Coast Guard shield between them. The trident extends upward from the Coast Guard shield, symbolizing maritime defense and victory.
