Hampton Roads Cuttermen Association

Hampton Roads Cuttermen Association An organization dedicated to the sailors of the Coast Guard fleet past, present and future. The design can be divided into three basic areas.

"The Cutterman's Insignia was instituted in 1974 to provide recognition for Coast Guard personnel who, in the tradition of professional mariners, have performed duties afloat in keeping with their grade and rate and who have endured the rigors and dangers of sea duty for a substantial period. It signifies that they have exhibited the requisite professionalism and dedication to duty expected of sea

going Coast Guard personnel. The insignia is a visible means of recognizing their qualities and identifies the wearer as a professional mariner. Each is representative of a cutterman's special qualities. The wheel and the waves represent the heritage of the sea. The five point star represents five years of sea duty and the center, the shield, represents the Coast Guard and its seagoing tradition." From plaque at Command and Operations School, USCG Academy
