Coast Guard personnel who are permanently cross assigned to afloat Navy commands may qualify for the Surface Warfare Badge through the standard Navy qualification system. Coast Guard personnel serving on Coast Guard cutters are eligible to receive either the officer or enlisted version of the Cutterman Insignia.

“How happy is the sailor’s life,
From coast to coast to roam;
In every port he finds a wife,
In every land a home.”
