Submarine Development Squadron 5 Coin

Submarine Development Squadron 5 or DEVRON FIVE, is a unique squadron. It brings with it an entirely different portfolio than any other squadron in the Submarine Force. They are headquartered at the Naval Base Kitsap – Bangor, Silverdale, Washington. Up until World War II and for a little after, submarine squadrons could have several Submarine Divisions (SubDivs), often pairs of submarines.

DEVRON 5 conducts cooperative programs with civilian scientific and academic institutions in pursuit of national science objectives and is responsible within the Navy’s submarine force for tactical development, including unmanned undersea vehicles and naval special warfare.

They contacted us at Embleholics when they wanted to build a custom challenge coin for their ceremonial event. The design that they gave us was not like a common challenge coin. It was shaped like a DEVRON FIVE logo, a badge with the trident in the middle of it.

Building a uniquely shaped coin like this is not a problem for us since we have cutting-edge technology, including a digital design system and computerized machinery. Please check out the photos to the right and see for yourself the excellent details on the insignias and the image of the three wolves. They were engraved flawlessly even though the details were very small.
