140th Operations Support Squadron (U.S. Air Force) Holographic STICKER Die-Cut Vinyl Decal

This is a circular, heraldic badge built around a minuteman soldier, four jets in formation, and a rising sun over mountains, with the squadron's designation set into curved banners.

Visual Elements & Composition

Navy blue fills the largest share of the badge, with pale sky blue behind the scene and golden yellow picking out the sun and lettering. Black provides the outlines and fine structure, and white is used sparingly. The composition is centred in a circular frame. The minuteman with rifle stands at the core, the four jets fly in tight formation across the upper field, and the sun rises over a mountain line below. Curved banners carry the text: 140TH and OSS identify the unit, while BELLATORUM and SUSTINEMUS sit in the scrollwork. The flat vector style keeps every shape crisp and readable.

Meaning & Symbolism

The minuteman is a long-standing emblem of readiness, drawn from the citizen soldiers of the American colonies who answered the call at a moment's notice. Paired with jet aircraft, it marks the squadron's place in modern air power. The rising sun over mountains signals new beginnings and steady endurance. The Latin phrases carry the message: Bellatorum means "of warriors," and Sustinemus means "we sustain." Together they describe a unit whose work is the operational support that keeps aircraft flying. The design follows the traditions of military insignia, where a badge condenses a unit's identity into one image.

On the Holographic Sticker

A die-cut sticker is cut to its own outline, so the badge's circular silhouette becomes the object itself with no border around it. The emblem reads at close range, where the minuteman, jets, and banner lettering can be seen clearly. Each element keeps its place in the cut, which makes this a sticker that shows the squadron's full identity in a single shape.
