Default Modern Tank Sleeve Badge Help

Morning All,

Can anyone tell me / show me what badge the RTR crews are wearing on their coverall sleeve these days please?

Is there a tank badge on a black backing or is it the khaki one?

I've looked online for photos of the uniform but none are detailed enough for me to see.

Thanks a lot,

Michael

Thanks Mike,

I'm guessing the dark blue and silver wire one is for No 1's while the other photo seems to show the khaki one being worn on the coveralls.

Thanks a lot,

Michael

Hi
They wore the khaki one cut to shape on coveralls.

Michael - for interest, my RTR bits including arm badges. The subdued, I suspect is private purchase.

Regards all Bess
