Third is Royal Dragoon Guards
Fourth if a black triangle was I believe worn by the Gurkha Battalion in 5 Infantry Brigade later 5 Airborne Brigade.

Tim, I agree, A Black Triangle was worn by 7 Gurkha Rifles as part of 5 Infantry Brigade, (in the Falklands) . Worn on one arm and each Company wore a shape ( square, diamond, circle, bar or cross) on the other arm . Tim
