In undress they wore the pillbox forage cap as described by Manchester’s, above.
Sergeants and above had a gold lace band around the cap, and after July 1881 adopted the universal grenade hitherto worn by the RA as an arm badge above their rank stripes.
Corporals and Second Corporals (both substantive ranks) wore brass chevrons indicating their rank on the pillbox cap, but no other insignia.
