This is what the slogan cancel would have looked like in its entirety. It was used primarily during calendar year 1967:

That is a great stamp a fancy cancel collector, or gun enthusiast, might also really appreciate it is nicely so nicely placed and clear. It made me think!

December 22 1967,#OMS110- seabees 25th anniversary slogan cancellation.

listed on page 12 of this pdf file.- http://www.dcstampclub.org/pdfs/DC_..._Cancels.pdf

Also, I believe the stamp your cancel is on is the "dirty face" version of scott #1283. People complained about it's appearance so they re-tooled the die and we get the #1283B

Edited: added info on the cancel and stamp
