Description
Introducing 'Military Insignia & Heraldry - NSWC' collection by Serge Averbukh, showcasing military and government heraldry artwork. Here you will find fine art prints featuring insignia of the United States Naval Special Warfare Development Group (NSWDG or DEVGRU).
The United States Naval Special Warfare Development Group (NSWDG), commonly known as DEVGRU and informally by its former name SEAL Team Six (ST6), is one of the United States' four secretive counter-terrorism and Special Mission Units (SMUs).
The vast majority of information about DEVGRU is highly classified, and details of its activities are not commented on by either the White House or the Department of Defense. While DEVGRU is administratively supported by the Naval Special Warfare Command, it is operationally commanded by the Joint Special Operations Command. It is based at Training Support Center Hampton Roads, Virginia Beach, Virginia, known as FTC Dam Neck until 2004.
The origins of ST6 can be traced to the aftermath of Operation Eagle Claw, the failed 1980 attempt to rescue American hostages at the U.S. Embassy in Iran. This new unit, which he named SEAL Team Six. The main area that separated SEAL Team Six/DevGru from the other "regular" SEAL teams was its funding. The team was given a large amount of money and was able to buy the best weapons and equipment available. In 1987, a new unit was formed, given the official title of "Naval Special Warfare Development Group" (abbreviated to NAVSPECWARDEVGRU, or DEVGRU) after SEAL Team Six was dissolved. Reasons for the disbanding are varied, but the name SEAL Team Six is often used in reference to DEVGRU because of their similarities as a maritime counter-terrorism unit. DEVGRU's designation once again had been changed by the Defense Department to a new name; the name itself was classified. Despite the official name changes, Team 6's original name remains widely recognized.
NSWDG is divided into four color-coded line squadrons: Red Squadron (Assault), Blue Squadron (Assault), Gold Squadron (Premier Squadron) and a recently-formed Silver Squadron (Assault). There is also a Gray Squadron (Boat Crews) and a Black Squadron (Reconnaissance and Surveillance squadron), which is an entirely different being.
Each squadron is divided into three troops and troops are also divided into smaller teams.
