Robin Lumsden Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 Does anyone know what the difference between these two mess dress types signifies ?? I believe the one on the right might be for warrant officers, worn on the lower sleeve, and the one on the left for NCOs, worn on the chevrons ?? Thanks in advance !

Mervyn Mitton Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 Robin - hopefully you've answered your own question. I could find very little on the wearing of these badges. Mervyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lancer1856 Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 The dark blue backed one was worn by 17th/21st only, the French grey one was worn by 17th/21st just before amalgamation and was worn on mess dress only with QRL until around 2000 when the new Arm motto came into wear.
