18 Surgical Hospital (U.S. Army) Holographic STICKER Die-Cut Vinyl Decal

A heraldic unit crest built from a gold radiating burst, an eight-point star carrying a red cross, and the numeral 18, set on a dark maroon field inside a heptagonal frame.

Visual Elements & Composition

Gold dominates the design, taking roughly three-tenths of the colour field, with dark maroon close behind as the ground that makes the crest read as solid and formal. Royal blue and crimson red appear in smaller measures, and white adds the highlights that separate the star from the background. The composition is centred and symmetrical: rays fan outward from the middle, the eight-point star sits at the heart of the emblem, and a circular badge and heptagonal outline frame the whole. The style is flat vector with gradient shading, so the forms stay clean and graphic rather than illustrated in detail. The numeral 18 anchors the lower portion as the identifying mark of the unit.

Meaning & Symbolism

Unit crests like this one follow the conventions of military heraldry: a shield or badge shape, a central emblem, and a designation that tells you who belongs to it. The red cross on the star is the familiar medical sign, marking the surgical function the unit is named for, while the radiating gold rays signal distinction and authority within the badge. The eight-point star, a long-standing heraldic device, gives the emblem its formal character. The design draws its vocabulary from U.S. Army unit insignia, the original artwork being the work of that military tradition, and it carries that formality into the modern era in which the style was produced.

On the Holographic Die-Cut Sticker

A die-cut sticker is cut along its own outline, so the heptagonal frame and the rays become the edge of the object itself rather than a rectangle with artwork inside it. The holographic finish gives the gold rays and star a shifting rainbow sheen as the light moves across them, which suits a design built on radiating lines. Placed on a laptop, notebook, or locker, the crest reads as a compact badge that rewards a closer look.

Holographic vinyl decals with a high-contrast rainbow sheen, printed with eco-friendly inks on premium, weather-rated film. Waterproof, UV-protected, and available in five sizes.

Built to turn heads and hold up outdoors. These holographic decals use premium printable vinyl topped with a UV-protective laminate. The film is rated for multi-year outdoor exposure, so the color stays bold and the surface resists scuffs and sun fade.

  • Signature finish: a 99% opaque rainbow effect that shifts with angle and light—clean edges and a smooth, matte-sheen feel rather than a mirror gloss.
  • Waterproof: designed for rain, splashes, and regular washing on smooth, non-porous surfaces.
  • Eco-conscious printing: vibrant, high-density color produced with eco-solvent inks for sharp lines and rich gradients.
  • Color guidance: no white underbase is applied; pure white areas won’t print, and very light tones allow the holographic layer to show through. Darker tones deliver the strongest contrast.
  • Easy-peel backing: release liner separates cleanly for quick, bubble-free placement.

Made for smooth surfaces: glass, metal, coated plastics, sealed laptops, bottles, mirrors, lockers, and windows. Suitable for interiors and short-term exterior spots like vehicle windows or signage.

  1. Prep: clean the area with mild soap and water or 70% isopropyl alcohol; let it dry fully.
  2. Apply: peel, align, and press from the center outward with a card or squeegee to push out air.
  3. Set: allow 24 hours for the adhesive to reach full bond; avoid heavy moisture during this time.

Tips: Avoid heavily textured or silicone-coated surfaces. For curved items, apply slowly and don’t stretch the film.

  • Wipe with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth from the center outward to lift dust and grime.
  • Avoid abrasive pads, harsh solvents, or pressure washers that can dull the holographic layer.
  • If placed on bottles or mugs, hand-wash is recommended. Prolonged high-heat cycles can shorten adhesive life.

Available in five sizes. Measurements refer to the longest side of the decal. A “3 inch” option is 3 inches across its largest dimension; the die-cut follows the exact contour for crisp, professional edges.
