In the United States (U.S.), a marksmanship badge is a U.S. military or civilian badge awarded to personnel upon successful completion of a weapons qualification course (known as marksmanship qualification badges) or for high achievement in an official marksmanship competition (known as marksmanship competition badges). The U.S. Army and the U.S. Marine Corps are the only military services that award marksmanship qualification badges. However, marksmanship medals and ribbons are awarded by the U.S. Navy, U.S. Coast Guard, and U.S. Air Force for weapons qualifications.
