Title: Insignia: U.S. Naval Amphibious School, Little Creek
Caption: This insignia was adopted in 1965. The 'Keystone' shaped shield symbolizes the position of the school as the keystone in amphibious warfare knowledge and training. The trident and rifle represent the Navy-Marine Corps teamwork involved in amphibious warfare. The anchor, superimposed over these symbols, emphasizes the predominately naval flavor of the school's training. The lamp of knowledge symbolizes the school's position as the "Fount and repository of amphibious warfare knowledge."
