Uniforms:
There are a few criterias
For cadets,
basically, 2 normal criterias and 1 special criteria
1. 1st mass issue for all new cadets; uniform issued is from head
to toe
2. 2nd mass issue for all current cadets; uniform issued is from
head to toe except jockey cap and belt
3. special issue for courses and national events like ndp; uniform
issued is varied, could be jacket and pants only, or jacket, pants
and beret only, or any other combinations
Cadets should therefore get a 1st set which is not too tight
fitting, in order to get their 2nd set only in Sec 3, especially
guys (due to growth spurt). Otherwise getting a 3rd and subsequent
set is going to be costly for the cadet, especially the combat
boots.
For cadet officer (CLTs) and officer (HOs, TOs, OCs),
basically, 3 criterias (thus far; note that 1st criteria is broken
into 1a and 1b)
1A. 1st mass issue of no. 4 unifrom, from head to toe, with 2 sets
of jacket and pants, given before course starts. Name tag will be
given at a later time, normally by POP.
1B. issue of 1 set no. 3 uniform, from head to toe, including 1 set
made to measure bush jacket shirt and pants or bush jacket blouse
and skirt. delivery depends on tailor (about 3 to 4 months). name
tag normally issued at the same time
2. special issue for courses and national events like ndp; uniform
issued is varied, could be jacket and pants only, or jacket, pants
and beret only, or any other combinations (same as cadets 3rd
criteria)
It is tight fitting because there are shoulder paddings and its
made to measure (in other words, be careful)
3. a few years in service as officer (about 4 years); new set of
no. 3 and no. 4 from head to toe

Badges for CLTs/HOs:
SCDF-NCDCC: only for CLTs who were cadets for 4 years and whom were
awarded during their cadet life, thus far
NCDCC fire-fighting course: CLTs and officers who pass out of NCDCC
fire-fighting course
Currently that's the only 2, if you don't count NYAA, as NCDCC have
almost 0 Cadets/CLTs with NYAA
