The Boat Force Operations insignia is intended to identify those Coast Guard personnel currently working in the boat force operations field and to recognize the commitment of Coast Guard members who have repeatedly served in the community. It is awarded in two levels and recognizes those who have achieved a level of qualification, knowledge and experience that includes both practical and operational components, with a broader understanding and appreciation for boat force command, management, support and leadership issues.〔(USCG Boat Operations and Training (BOAT) Manual, Volume I ): Part 2, Chapter 6, Boat Force Operations Insignia Criteria〕 The insignia may also be earned by Auxiliarists with slightly-modified criteria. * Basic: The basic insignia design and color scheme consists of pewter-tone waves (representative of operations), crossed boathook and oar (representative of boats), and a superimposed compass rose (representing leadership and direction). * Advanced (Pewter-and-Gold-Toned Insignia): The advanced qualification insignia as described above except that the compass rose is a polished gold color, and the crossed boat hook and oar and the stylized waves remain silver. == Requirements for the Basic Insignia == The basic insignia can be earned by Coast Guardsmen and Auxiliarists meeting three criteria: * Service at present boat force unit for at least 6 months (temportary insignia).
