I think there is no doubt that the RAPC you mention would certainly have retained his badge whilst attached to the WG, I certainly remember some very colourful staff at Sir John Moore barracks who were members of that particular Corps!

Thought I'd share this frame that I've just rediscovered having cleared the loft in a lockdown frenzy - it dates from 1982 and was professionally framed and I'm probably going to move it on if anyone's interested in it.
