Now I'm obsessed with the gold emblem on his left chest. Is that aviation, or submarines?

Are you refering to the big silver device above his ribbons? That's a Surface Warfare pin.

It's an ESWS pin (Enlisted Surface Warfare Specialist). Not only you have to be DIVO qualified (on 3-M), but the PQS book is very thick, and you have to go in front of a board and answer many questions (3-M, engineering, DC, supply, etc.
