The SWAT Operator Insignia© has been adopted nationwide by law enforcement and corrections agencies as their official SWAT qualification insignia. The appeal of this insignia is that it is very professional looking, not overly aggressive or politically charged and symbolizes the ideal characteristics of a SWAT Operator. To honor the first responder community, we used our original design to inspire several other insignia variations for SWAT medics, firefighters, EMS professionals, and tactical patrol officers.
