Navy Expert Pistol and Coast Guard Sharpshooter Rifle Devices

A Marksmanship Device is an award of the United States Navy and U.S. Coast Guard which is presented as an attachment to the Marksmanship Ribbon. There are two Marksmanship Devices which are presented for scoring as a Sharpshooter or Expert on a pistol and rifle qualification course.

The Sharpshooter Marksmanship Device is typically referred as the S Device and appears as a bronze colored "S". The Expert Marksmanship Device is referred to as the E Device (not to be confused with the Battle E Device) and appears as a silvered colored "E".

The Expert Marksmanship Device is worn on the Marksmanship Ribbon in lieu of the full sized Marksmanship Medal. When wearing the Marksmanship Medal, the Expert Marksmanship Device is not displayed.
