Naval Aviator Badge

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Naval Aviator Badge (Marine Corps: Naval Aviator Insignia) is a decoration of the United States military that is awarded to those aviators of the United States Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard who have qualified as Naval Aviators on board military aircraft. The decoration is similar in design to the Naval Flight Officer Badge, consisting of a single fouled anchor, surmounted by a shield, centered on a pair of golden wings.

The Naval Aviator Badge is identical for all three branches and is awarded in a single degree. To qualify for the Naval Aviator Badge, a service member must have completed Primary and Advanced Flight Training and be designated a qualified pilot of a military aircraft.
