Title: Insignia: USS SEA POACHER (SS-406)
Caption: This insignia, which pictures a hunter of the sea, was designed by Lieutenant Edking in 1956. It is symbolic of the Sherwood Forest Era, when people hunted on the property of others. It, therefore, represents an enemy territory in search of "game." Received from the ship in 1968. Date of Photo: 1968.
