Command Excellence Awards

We offer a convenient and cost effective way to display your ship's Command Excellence Awards.

All of our awards comply with COMNAVSURFORINST 3502.1A found in your instructional- so you can be confident you are receiving the correct size, shape, and color when you place your order with us.

Command Excellence Awards

Each award is made from 1/8" acrylic that is cut out 100%- leaving no background color that may contrast with the color of the ship. They are cut from the correct color sheet stock, and are backed with an exterior grade double faced tape, or magnetic backing for installation on the ship.

  • DFT Installation- Standard installations receive an outdoor grade DFT (double faced tape) backing. This is used when the awards are to be permanently displayed on the ship. Once they are installed- they stay put until you take them down. We have been told that our larger sized 20"x25" awards have withstood 20' seas and 50 knot winds.
  • Magnetic Installation- We also offer a magnetic installation for those commands that have the RADAR absorbing hull coating commonly found on our newer DDG's. Since awards can not be attached, or painted on the coating- we developed a magnetic solution for display of your awards. They can be easily removed when under way, and re installed when you return. Just think of them as really big refrigerator magnets!

3” and 5” wide stripes are available in the appropriate colors. These stripes are also cut out 100% leaving no background color to contrast against the ship. Each stripe lays at the correct angle, and match the width of the corresponding letter award. The appropriate 3" and 5" stars are available as well.

For those with small display areas (MCM, MHC, ARS, PC), we have the ability to custom cut your hash marks to save space at no extra charge - just inquire when requesting a estimate.


Battle E with gray back

Battle Efficiency Awards

We offer 3 sizes of the larger drop-shadowed Battle “E” depending on the hull class of your ship. They are made from 1/8" white acrylic with a high performance black vinyl film applied to it for the 3 dimensional effect. They utilize a DFT installation, but can also be ordered with a magnetic backing if needed.

The correct sized white stars and drop shadowed hash marks are also available in both DFT and magnetic installation solutions. The stars and hash marks match the specified size of the "E" depending on the hull class of your ship.
