I have noticed that when in theatre , after a few uniform changes (cleaning and exchanges ) there seems to be very few qualification / trade badges showing in period photos. Sometimes just a div flash and that's it.

Ron, would the position of the BC badge on the left forearm me about correct in the attached photo?, like Shaun says difficult to find period photos.

Kevin.

Gents, found this thread about it :

http://www.wwiireenacting.co.uk/foru...79214&p=911493

Quote from the thread : Is it measurements that you're after? 1/2" above the the centre of the top chevron (if worn), otherwise 6 1/2" from the bottom of the sleeve on BD.
