Origin/meaning

The wreath of laurel represents the heroism required of those engaged in search and rescue operations, while the parachute decorated with the Canadian flag depicts one of the means used by Canadian Forces personnel to effect rescues. A serpent entwines the parachute line, recalling the Rod of Aesculapius, the international symbol of medicine.

The badge was approved on January 1, 1998.
