Indeed, Simon, the magazine was incorrect as I found a Victorian Ranks chart a little later, but the image was painfully small to see. Just couldn't find an image on a uniform.
Marc, that is a terrific image. Very clearly defines the rank and affinity to the guns.
Thanks very much all. I shall pass this on to my young friend with the rank badge.
