U.S. Navy Rear Admiral (Lower Half) O-7 Shoulder Board Hoodie Design
Shoulder Board Artwork
The hoodie design prominently features the shoulder board insignia of a U.S. Navy Rear Admiral (Lower Half), rank O-7. This visual element represents the wearer's position as a one-star flag officer within the U.S. Navy. The shoulder board design is a classic gold braid, which signifies the rank and authority of the officer. The focal point of the shoulder board representation is a single, centrally-placed silver star. This star is the definitive mark of a Rear Admiral (Lower Half), signifying their leadership and command responsibilities at a high level within the Navy.
Sleeve Insignia Representation
The design also incorporates the sleeve insignia elements associated with a Rear Admiral (Lower Half). This is conveyed through the use of a thick, gold stripe, signifying a flag officer's status, paired with a single silver star placed prominently above the stripe. This combination is a consistent element used on the sleeves of uniforms to instantly identify the rank, which is repeated on this hoodie's design, to create a uniform and cohesive look.
Symbolism and Meaning
The combined representation of the shoulder board and sleeve insignia offers a potent symbol of leadership, experience, and dedication to the United States Navy. The star signifies the wearer's position in the flag officer ranks, marking their ascension to a high-level leadership role and the associated responsibility for strategic planning and operational leadership. The gold braid adds to the authority and prestige that are traditionally associated with those ranks.
