Default British Military Lanyards

Recently added to my Lanyard album
http://www.britishbadgeforum.com/for...p?albumid=2027
which now contains 162 examples, a number of which need further identification. Help from members would be much appreciated and I have some spares for exchange.

Default RMAS

An amazing collection. I see you have the RMA Sovereigns Platoon lanyard. It's probably near-identical but this is a 1963 vintage Sovereign's Company version - worn for almost all the period Sep 61-Aug 63 by Rhine Company, Victory College, Mike

I recently acquired this lanyard, which is identical to your I1:



The colours green/pink/yellow led me to believe it's County of London Yeomanry, identical to the colours of the 'racing stripes'. Could anyone verify?

Could it be a washed out REME? I've seen one similar
