Grand Alliance Space Warfare Pins

The TRMN’s Space Warfare Pin is modeled roughly on the United States Navy’s Surface Warfare insignia. This metal pin is worn by commissioned officers of the USN to indicate that they have achieved certain qualifications, such as officer of the deck, small boat officer, combat information center officer, shipboard engineering, damage control, and quality maintenance. It is a requirement for further advancement in line officers. The Space Warfare Pin comes in two varieties: a gold one for officers and a silver one for enlisted personnel.

Enlisted SWP

Both RMN and RMMC enlisted wear the same pin. Officers may wear the ESWP only provided it was earned and awarded while they were enlisted, and only until they have completed the requirements for the OSWP. The ESWP is worn plain when first awarded. On being transferred to another unit, a numeral 2 is affixed to the center of the pin, indicating a second deployment. A third deployment is indicated by a numeral 3; 4 and more deployments display a numeral 4. Enlisted of the RMN who have been awarded the ESWP and who subsequently transfer to the RMMC may continue to wear the ESWP until such time as they achieve the RMMC ESWP qualifications, and vice-versa.Terminology
