U.S. Navy Motor Torpedo Boat Squadron 37 (MTB Ron 37) was a World War II PT-boat (Patrol Torpedo Boat) unit active in the Pacific during 1944 and 1945. 

The design of a nude woman riding a seahorse reflects the bold, pin-up style artwork commonly used by late-war PT squadrons. 

Ron 37 operated fast ELCO PT boats on night patrol, barge hunting, reconnaissance, and coastal interdiction missions in support of the final Allied advances through the Philippines and surrounding waters. 

The squadron was deactivated after Japan’s surrender, making its insignia a classic example of wartime PT-boat nose art from the final year of the Pacific campaign.

For your kind Consideration.
