Weapons Qualification Badge
There are three Weapons Qualification Badges for Pistol and Rifle shooting. Expert is the highest a marksman can earn for having a high shooting score. Sharpshooter is average and Marksman is just above being able to qualified to fire the weapon in combat. Marksman is a square badge that has a target circle. Because of it's shape, Marines would call any marksman recipient having earned a "Pizza box" because they have just barely qualified to fire that weapon.
