Dolphins are the symbol of qualification worn by submarine personnel.
Before an officer or enlisted man may wear this emblem, he must demonstrate a thorough knowledge of all compartments, systems, machinery and equiptment of the entire ship. He must then be examined by an officer, or board of officers to prove his knowledge. Upon successful completion of this examination he is designated 'Qualified in Submarines' and is eligible to wear the dolphins.
