The shoulder flashes—featuring the instantly recognisable "RMC" initials in black on green or red on blue backgrounds—immediately identify cadets affiliated with this elite specialisation. These distinctive badges reflect the Royal Marines' own corps identity while creating appropriate cadet versions that acknowledge the connection without compromising regular service insignia.

The proper positioning of these badges on uniform follows specific regulations, teaching cadets the attention to detail expected within military organisations. Learning to correctly place and maintain these insignia develops the precision in personal presentation that distinguishes the Royal Marines' high standards.
