=== Pirate and Raiding Traditions ===
Depsite the traditional Arcer distaste of pirates and seafaring marauders due to the historical association with indigenous pirates in the Malentine Sea, the Submarine Service opted to coopt the use of the Jolly Roger as its unofficial banner and ship's flag during the Second Great War. Ships returning from successful voyages during the war with vessels they had destroyed was permitted by the Arcer Admiralty to fly a Jolly Roger, with a smaller place triangle pennant to indicate number of vessels destroyed. The record belongs to HMAS ''Tiger'', which sank fifteen enemy ships in a single voyage through the Songun Straits and into the Polynesian Sea, requiring a torpedo resupply part of the way through its voyage, which was successfully completed off the coast of Kiravian-controlled [[Æonara]].

=== Dolphin Insignia ===
The dolphin insignia continues to one of Ixnay's most common symbols for submariners, representing the duality of surface and below-sea life of most members of the submarine service. Arcer Officers receive their insignia after completion of the Subsurface Warfare School, and non-commissioned members after the completion of their respective trades training and emergency procedures indoctrination. Sailros are permitted to wear the insignia for the duration of their careers, including once back in a staff and command role, at a training school, or on later sails with the surface fleet.
