The Royal Air Force Air Cadets has some other badges, flags and banners that you should be able to recognise. The Air Training Corps Badge
is the official badge of the ATC. The centre contains a falcon to represent the qualities a cadet should have, namely vision, strength and
courage. Squadrons may have their own unofficial badge. The Air Training Corps Ensign is the official ensign flag of the ATC. It is to be
treated with the same respect as the RAF Ensign. Normally shown during daylight hours when a squadron is parading.
