Submarine Forces of the World Insignia -qualification badges

This site Worldwide Submarine Insignia created by retired USN Commander Steve Jones is pretty comprehensive listing submariner’s insignia or pins for all Countries with submarine forces. Where he does not have pictures, he has a description. Not totally complete but the best I have seen. http://www.geocities.com/CapeCanaveral/Lab/1745/quicklinks.html
Some of then are quite striking like the Swedish http://www.geocities.com/CapeCanaveral/Lab/1745/Sweden.jpg
It’s interesting to see how some chose the “dolphin”, some the “swordfish” and some are just very basic.

My interests are any Navy, Marine or Auxiliary Sea Service rank insignia or history.
Slightly anal retentive but at least I have a sense of humour about it
