In 1978/79 5 Field Force wore the formation sign of the 24th Guards Brigade (these were embroidered and not printed and had to be bought for the princely sum of 60 pence each). The formation sign wasn't on vehicles , instead there was a white code in the format "5/24" indicating the vehicle as being part of 24th unit of 5 field force (if memory serves me correctly I think 5/24 was in fact the RCT Squadron within 5 FF).

If i'm not mistaken, 6 Field Force in the same period wore the yellow Pegasus on blue background (all those I saw were printed versions)
