I looked but couldn't find a crossed sword/pen(quill) used by anyone other than JAG and military legal services, but theirs is combined with different other elements, as far as I could find.

This is the USNI's Quill and Sword insignia lapel pin. It displays the USNI logo in navy, white, and gold.

Here's what a current lapel pin looks like!

Thank you guys so far for identifying this pin. Can anyone find out how old this pin is?

Here are some additional pictures:






Hope this helps. Thanks again!
