The NCC flag consists of three equal vertical bands of colour, red on two sides and white in the centre. The features of the flag were not arbitrarily chosen- each feature has its own distinctive meaning and significance: red symbolizes universal brotherhood and equality of men while white symbolizes purity and virtue.
Emblazoned upon the centre of the while panel is the NCC Badge. The NCC Badge consists of a shield, with the symbol of the sun in the background. Ten golden beams radiate from the sun, symbolizing the formation of our new country. Surrounding this sun is a blue ring, with the words, National Cadet Corps. Another 122 golden beams radiate outwards ending at the edge of the shield, symbolizing unity and strength. Below the shield is a banner inscribed with the word Singapore.
In the foreground is the lion, symbolizing Bravery, Courage and Strength of the youths of Singapore . The sword held by the Lion symbolizes the Defence of our country. Sitting on top of the Badge, is the State Crest. This symbolizes the fact that the National Cadet Corps is a National Body, formed by the Government of Singapore to serve the Nation's youth.
The State Crest consists of a shield emblazoned with a white crescent moon and five white stars against a red background. Red is symbolic of universal brotherhood and equality of man, and white signifies pervading and everlasting purity and virtue. The five stars represent the five ideals of democracy, peace, progress, justice and equality. Supporting the shield are a lion on the left and a tiger on the right. Below the shield is a banner bearing the Republic's motto, Majulah Singapura. The lion represents Singapore itself and tiger, the island's historical links with Malaysia
