This circular embroidered patch represents the 382nd Separate Marine Infantry Battalion of the Russian Naval Infantry (Морская пехота), a unit historically associated with the Black Sea Fleet. The design features a shark over a naval anchor, a motif commonly used by naval infantry units to symbolize maritime assault capability, aggression, and readiness for amphibious operations.
The surrounding Cyrillic text reads “Отдельный батальон морской пехоты” (“Separate Marine Infantry Battalion”), with the unit designation 382 prominently displayed at the bottom. This patch reflects a unit-associated morale or commemorative emblem, rather than standardized Ministry of Defense sleeve insignia.

Historical Context
The 382nd Separate Marine Infantry Battalion is a documented Russian Naval Infantry unit historically subordinate to formations of the Black Sea Fleet. In addition to standardized insignia, Russian naval infantry units commonly commission unofficial morale and commemorative patches for internal use, gifts, and supporter recognition.
This shark-and-anchor design does not appear in formal heraldic registries but aligns with widely observed non-regulation insignia practices within Russian naval infantry units.
