US Navy O-9 Vice Admiral Shoulder Board Vinyl Decal Design

This vinyl decal presents a detailed representation of the US Navy Vice Admiral (VADM) shoulder board insignia, a key visual symbol of three-star flag officer rank. The design encapsulates the authority and prestige associated with the O-9 pay grade.

Visual Elements and Symbolism

The central focus of the design is a horizontal row of three silver stars. These stars are the primary visual identifier of a Vice Admiral, instantly communicating the wearer's high rank within the Navy's hierarchy.

Below the stars, the design incorporates the characteristic gold braid stripes. This includes one broad gold stripe and two standard-width gold stripes, reflecting the traditional pattern found on dress uniform shoulder boards. The combination of stars and gold stripes provides a clear visual representation of Vice Admiral rank, intended for formal and ceremonial settings.

The design, although adapted for a decal, maintains the recognizable layout of the shoulder board. The placement and arrangement of the stars and stripes mimic the original insignia, instantly identifying the rank for those familiar with naval traditions. The overall design signifies leadership, experience, and the significant responsibilities inherent to the Vice Admiral position within the United States 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.
