COAT OF ARMS
The trident rising from the waves symbolizes mastery of
maritime activities. The three tines of the trident allude to
the requirement for the fundamental knowledge of
strategy, tactics and logistics necessary to an increased
understanding of naval warfare. The helmsman's wheel
alludes to the objectives of the Naval War College and the
laurel wreath which encircles the wheel symbolizes
accomplishment of the mission.
