US Navy MIDN LTJG Shoulderboard Sticker Design

This vinyl kiss-cut decal features a meticulously crafted representation of a US Navy MIDN LTJG shoulderboard. The design mirrors the visual elements of a rank structure used during the training of future officers at institutions like the Naval Academy and NROTC.

Visual Elements and Meaning

The core of the design is a rectangular shape that mimics the form of a military shoulderboard. The background color, rendered in a crisp white or deep navy blue (depending on the chosen design variant), provides the foundational field. Encircling the edge of the board is a detailed border of gold trim, replicating the traditional aesthetic of naval insignia, adding a sense of prestige and authority.

The most prominent element is a single gold bar or stripe, precisely positioned within the board. This insignia symbolizes the rank of Lieutenant Junior Grade (LTJG), denoting a specific level of authority and responsibility within the officer corps. However, in this MIDN LTJG context, the design signifies the wearer's leadership role and experience level during training, rather than actual commissioned officer status.

Symbolism and Representation

This sticker design encapsulates the spirit of ambition and training associated with aspiring naval officers. It visually communicates a position of leadership and progress within the Midshipman ranks. The emulation of the LTJG insignia, while not representing the actual officer rank, signifies a student’s dedication to earning the title. The gold trim and sharp lines contribute to an image of tradition, respect, and readiness for service within the U.S. Navy.

Glossy kiss-cut vinyl stickers made for smooth, indoor surfaces — laptops, journals, mirrors, and other finished items. Crisp edges, vivid color, strong hold, and not waterproof.

What “kiss-cut” means: the blade cuts the vinyl layer into the exact shape while leaving the backing liner whole, so pieces separate cleanly and lift off the sheet without tearing. It’s the neatest way to produce shaped stickers and multi-piece sheets.

  • Material: reliable vinyl face with a permanent acrylic adhesive formulated for smooth, non-porous surfaces.
  • Finish: glossy surface that enhances contrast and depth without feeling overly reflective.
  • Printing: eco-solvent inks provide dense color and crisp detail for fine lines and gradients.
  • Use case: intended for indoor environments only — not waterproof. Not recommended for continuous exposure to moisture or dishwashing.
  • Application friendly: easy-peel backing and a liner that releases cleanly to help reduce bubbles and misfeeds during placement.

These stickers perform best on smooth, dust-free surfaces — think laptop lids, sealed notebooks, glass, mirrors, finished shelving and lockers. They’ll stick well where the surface is flat and clean; avoid rough wood, silicone, fabric, and heavily textured paint.

  1. Clean: remove dust and oils with a lint-free cloth. For stubborn grime, use a mild soap and water rinse; let the area dry completely.
  2. Align: peel a corner, position carefully, then press the center down first.
  3. Smooth: work outward from the center with a soft card or a thumb to push air out and ensure the edges set down firmly.

Tip: give the adhesive 24 hours to fully settle before heavy handling. These are not designed for outdoor or wet conditions.

  • Gently dust with a soft, dry cloth, moving from the center outward to avoid scratching the gloss.
  • For light marks, a barely damp microfiber will lift residue — blot, don’t scrub, and dry right away.
  • Avoid bleach, solvents, abrasive pads, and steam; moisture or harsh chemicals can lift edges and fade inks.

Reminder: these stickers are not waterproof. Keep them away from sinks, outdoor exposure, and dishwasher cycles to maintain adhesion and finish.

Sizes are measured across the sticker’s longest side. For example, a 3″ sticker is 3 inches across its largest dimension (height or width, depending on the shape).

The kiss-cut follows the sticker’s outline for a tidy border; complex shapes can show small variances, but the advertised measurement refers to the maximum edge-to-edge length.
