The same pin as Tom Skerritt wears it as Captain Bill Rhodes in the 2003 movie "Tears of the Sun". This pin is an original US Army supply.
Established on 16 October 1970, the insignia recognizes those service members who have completed the Navy’s Basic Underwater Demolition/SEAL (BUD/S) training, completed SEAL Qualification Training and have been designated as U.S. Navy SEALs. The Special Warfare insignia consists of a golden eagle clutching a U.S. Navy anchor, trident, and flintlock style pistol.
