Jon,
the paper that Sean referenced covers labels & has " North American Standards"
http://eagle.org/
I will keep in mind your thoughts as all though the symbols may conform to
a standard, it is not obvious what some of them stand for.
Maybe the addition of a small word underneath would be helpful.

I originally had english labels but then thought about being a good global doobey and trying to find international icons just in case a non-english speaking person used my sub.  Now I think I over-thought that.  Having used a computer system in the R-300 it seems like it is much easier to say "click on SETTINGS" rather than "click on the icon that sort of looks like a bunch of slide bars" if you have to give instructions over the underwater comms.
