Cadet College Kohat

Since the establishment of the College, all the six Houses had displayed plain single coloured flags, but did not have any symbol or emblem which reflected the ideals and ethos of the colour, Motto and the House name. When the incumbent Principal joined the College, he personally designed the House badges or insignia. The distinct features of the House emblem are depicted on a standard heraldic escutcheon, in the tradition of cavalry sabretasche, with narrow straight top and a wider curved type base having pointed centre. Each House badge depicts its distinctive emblem on black coloured field lined with gold lacing on outer field in the specific colour of the House. All the insignia have one common sign - the symbol of Torch-the symbol of knowledge, learning and enlightenment. It basically represents the college motto “From Darkness into Light”.
