Coxswain Badge
The Coxswain Badge is a decoration of the United States Coast Guard which is issued to enlisted personnel who qualify as small craft commanders and coxswains. Such small craft include harbor defense boats, river patrol vessels, as well as support boats such as tugs and dredges.
The Coxswain Badge is considered senior to the Surfman Badge and both decorations may not be worn simultaneously. The United States Navy equivalent of the Coxswain badge is the Small Craft Enlisted Pin.
