Caption: This insignia, adopted in 1959, reflects the close cooperation of naval, land, and air units required in an amphibious assault. The eagle, anchor, and carbine device is taken from the World War II amphibious personnel shoulder patch. The helicopter represents the vertical assault capability now possessed by the amphibious forces. The two stars indicate the level of command of Commander Amphibious Group Two. Photographed in 1968.
