Submarine Engineering Duty insignia The Submarine Engineering Duty Insignia is a badge of the United States Navy which is issued to Engineering Duty Officers who have been designated as qualified in submarines through a program administered by the Naval Sea Systems Command . The badge is a variation of the Submarine Warfare insignia and portrays a propeller blade ( Engineering Duty Officers Community insigina ) flanked by two dolphins ( Submarine Warfare Community insignia ) . The Engineering Duty Officer Community ensures that U . S . Naval and Joint Forces operate and fight with the most capable platforms possible . Naval Engineers are involved with the design , acquisition , construction , repair , maintenance , conversion , overhaul , and disposal of ships , submarines , aircraft carriers and the systems on those platforms ( weapons , command and control , communications , computers , etc . ) . Engineering Duty Officers are unique to the navy because the majority of Engineering Duty Officers start their career as Unrestricted Line ( URL ) officers . First , they learn how to operate ships or submarines . Next , they obtain technical / engineering masters degrees . Then , Engineering Duty Officers combine that operational experience and technical knowledge to become the technical business leaders for the navy . A small number of highly - qualified individuals receive direct commissions as Engineering Duty Officers . In order to be considered , these individuals must already have an MS or PhD in engineering or a " hard " science ; in exceptional cases , a Professional Engineer ' s license may be substituted for this requirement , provided that the individual then obtains an MS or PhD . Selection for an Engineering Duty direct commission is very competitive , with only approximately 20 individuals selected from across the US each year . The Submarine Engineering Duty Insignia is only authorized to those officers who are members of the Engineering Duty Officer community who complete advanced training in submarine design / engineering , construction , quality control , combat system , nuclear marine propulsion , watertight integrity control , nuclear / non - nuclear systems testings , and systems management and analysis . The Submarine Engineering Duty Insignia is only awarded after a service member completes the Submarine Engineering Duty Officer PQS ( Personal Qualification Standards ) which tests engineering knowledge in submarine design , operations , and maintenance . Those receiving the Submarine Engineering Duty Insignia are qualified as the Navy ' s lead submarine engineering experts .

Beartrap ( hauldown device ) The beartrap is the Canadian name of a device invented for smaller warship s , like frigate s and destroyer s , that carry helicopter s . While not essential to enable embarked helicopters to operate from small escort vessels , it enables them to operate in a wider range of weather conditions . In the mid - 1950s , navies of the world were faced with the challenge of how to land a large helicopter on a rolling , pitching flight deck of a smaller ship . The problem was solved in the early 1960s when the Royal Canadian Navy ’ s Experimental Squadron 10 ( VX 10 ) , based at Shearwater , in collaboration with Dartmouth ’ s Fairey Aviation , developed the world ’ s first Helicopter Hauldown and Rapid Securing Device ( HHRSD ) or " beartrap " . The CH - 124 Sea King was the first Royal Canadian Navy helicopter to be equipped with this system . To use the beartrap , a helicopter hovers over the landing pad on the deck and lowers a line with an attached probe on the end . This probe is attached by the deck crew to a heavier cable that passes though the center of the beartrap from a winch below the flight deck . The cable is pulled back up and secured to the helicopter . The pilot then increases power to balance the pull of the winch with the lift of the helicopter . This synchronizes the helicopter with the ship ' s movements and he is now in the " high hover " position . As the pilot decreases the power , the helicopter is slowly pulled by the winch to the " low hover " position just above the deck while maintaining synch with the ship . When the Landing Signals Officer ( LSO ) determines a quiescent moment is approaching he will instruct the pilot to land . He then closes the Beartrap to capture the helicopter ' s main probe , securing the aircraft to the flight deck . The tail is secured by a second probe . Once secured and after straightening , the Beartrap is used to traverse the aircraft in and out of the hangar This allows movement in and out of the hangar in more severe conditions than if it had to be towed in the conventional way . The HHRSD was subsequently adopted by navies around the world , including the United States , Australia , and Japan , and is considered Canada ’ s greatest contribution to the advancement of naval aviation . Other navies use different helicopters aboard different escort ships with a broadly similar system of a probe or grappling device lowered on a steel cable into a flight deck grating , before winching itself down while secured to the deck of a pitching vessel in heavy seas .
Arachidamia Arachidamia ( ) was a wealthy Spartan queen , wife of Eudamidas I , mother of Archidamus IV and Agesistrata , grandmother of Eudamidas II , great - grandmother and grandmother of Agis IV . The earliest accounts of her depict her leading Spartan women against Pyrrhus during his siege of Lacedaemon in the 3rd century BC . In the face of Pyrrhus ' s invasion , the Spartan Gerousia considered sending the Spartan women to Crete for their safety . Arachidamia , speaking on behalf of the Spartan women , entered the Gerousia , " with sword in hand , " and contested this proposal , questioning whether the Spartan women were expected to survive the ruin of their own city . With the matter settled , the Spartans initiated the construction of a defensive trench running parallel to Pyrrhus ' s camp . It is likely that Arachidamia helped direct the Spartan women in this respect , since it is reported that the Spartan women impressively " completed with their own hands a third of the trench . " Consequently , it is likely that Arachidamia led the efforts of Spartan women during the subsequent battle against Pyrrhus , as they are noted for supplying the defenders with weapons and refreshment during combat , and extracting wounded from the battlefield . Later records of Arachidamia date three decades later , with her assisting in the revolutionary designs of her grandson Agis IV , as he attempted to restore Lycurgan institutions to a Sparta then thoroughly corrupted by wealth and greed . Because Arachidamia and Agesistrata were the wealthiest two people in all of Lacedaemon , Arachidamia ' s support of Agis was instrumental in gaining support for the cause . She was among those who first pledged to contribute their wealth to a common pool , which was then to be distributed equally amongst both old and new Spartan citizens . However , these revolutionary designs were foiled by the corruption of Agis ' s uncle and erstwhile supporter , Agesilaus , and the machinations of a rival party , led by the Agiad King , Leonidas II . Leonidas and the Ephors had Agis illegally imprisoned and executed , unbeknownst to a mob that had gathered out of concern and a possible desire to see him freed . Arachidamia and Agesistrata were subsequently lured into the prison on the premise that they were to see Agis ; and there they too both met their ends at the hands of their political rivals .
