Many think this simply means "a lover of the beach". But it also has a police/military slang definition: When you see a Salt Life or Pirate Flag with a skull and swords, don't assume they are Jimmy Buffett fans. They are secret symbols for law enforcement or military personnel. The word Salt is a play on the word Assault as in assault teams and the pirate flag was worn by some Navy Seals in Africa. Regardless, LEOs and Military members have adopted them both as a way to publicly say who they are to others in the know but without the general public noticing. Many times undercover cars will have either of these stickers on them.
