Organisational Flag

[Army (Singapore)] 2:3
from a Singapore Armed Forces booklet

I recently went to Singapore (...) where I obtained a booklet which had on one page all the flags of the Singapore Armed Forces (SAF). The Army Flag has a red canton of crescent and stars but the background is yellow with a seal in the fly. The seal looks similar but not the same as the seal of the SAF Flag.

The flag described by Tom Koh is the organisational flag of the Army. It is displayed at the Army camps.

This flag is the State Colour of the Army, which is only displayed at Ceremonial Events such as on National Day Parade held on 9th August, on visits by Heads of Governments or States or at the President's inspection. It is based on the National Flag with the Army badge on the lower fly.
