Title: Insignia: USS SALMON (SS-573)
Caption: This insignia was adopted in 1962. It is a modification of the ship's previous insignia, the change having been made necessary by SALMON's conversion from an SSR to an SS. The design depicts an aggressive SALMON, charging toward her goal. The torpedoes represent the lethal firepower that she has at her disposal.
