Corporal first class

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Singapore Armed Forces' corporal first class insignia

Corporal first class (CFC) is the highest enlistee rank in the Singapore Armed Forces, ranking above corporal.[1]

The rank was first introduced in the Singapore Armed Forces on 1 September 1988.[2] At that time, its insignia was indicated by two downward chevrons on the arm, with a horizontal bar above the chevrons. However, the CFC rank was phased out from the NS ranks shortly after the revamp of the NS sergeant ranks in the 1990s.[3] Reintroduced in 2008, the CFC rank insignia was redesigned with an additional arc on top of the rank insignia for a corporal.[4]
