Organization Flag
The association's flag consists of a large white V (an inverted chevron) separating a blue triangle above from two red triangles on either side. The length of the top side of the blue triangle is the same as the width of the flag. (Note that a flag's "width" is its vertical dimension when flying from a flagpole.) The flag proportion is 2:3.
The V represents vexillology. The colors are taken from the flags of the two countries covered by NAVA: Canada (red and white) and the United States (red, white, and blue).

“Since wars begin in the minds of men, it is in the minds of men that the defences of peace must be constructed.”

“Swift blazing flag of the regiment,
Eagle with crest of red and gold,
These men were born to drill and die.
Point for them the virtue of slaughter,
Make plain to them the excellence of killing
And a field where a thousand corpses lie.”
