Worn as a diamond with the "chevrons" UK style (as a V). Flash adopted by 4/7 RDG in 1939 - in regimental colours - worn on the left arm and on steel helmets. I've no idea who has worn it as a TRF after the demise of the 4/7 RDG.

Sometimes incorrectly referred to as the 'D Day' flash but as said was introduced in 1939 and I believe worn when 4/7 DG were in the BEF.

4/7 RDG Flash
Here's a good example of it being worn shortly after D Day (the figure on the scout car is Comd 27 Armd Bde, Brig Prior Palmer (father of the famous equestrienne).
