Like other Capellan reserve regiments, the LCC chose not to adopt a divisional crest. Instead, LCC BattleMechs and equipment display the Confederation insignia. To differentiate themselves from the reserves of other commonalities, the LCC's Confederation crest is backed by a green field.

Aerospace fighters give the shield wings. Armor units place red cross hairs over a circular field, and the infantry's field is an inverted triangle.
