Current Northern Territory Police Shoulder Patch
The current Northern Territory Police shoulder patch, which was adopted in 1988, underwent a meticulous design process spanning two years and was gradually implemented over an 18-month period. At its core, the patch features a kangaroo, symbolising the rugged terrain of the Australian outback,  encircling the kangaroo is a laurel wreath adorned with the Territory's floral emblem, Sturt's desert rose. Above the kangaroo stands St Edward's Crown, representing the Commonwealth ties of the Northern Territory.
This distinctive shoulder patch design emerged from a pool of staff submissions, with Senior Constable Peter Hamon credited for the design's final iteration. The inclusion of the words 'serve' and 'protect' can also be attributed to the insightful contribution of Senior Constable Arthur Eggleston.
 
Original Triangle Police Shoulder Patch
The original triangle police shoulder patch was introduced in 1976, marking one of the earliest patches adopted by an Australian police jurisdiction. The colours of the patch reflect the North Australian Observer Unit, commonly known as the "Nackeroos" who operated across the Top End during WWII. Following the Northern Territory's attainment of self-government, this emblem
was redesigned to reflect the Territory's evolving status.
