Default RM shoulder titles

Hi Martyn

During the First World War marines would have worn either RMLI or RMA titles. They weren't combined to form the Royal Marines until 1923, which is when they adopted the RM titles.

During the First World War there also existed a couple of other Royal Marine organisations which had their own titles - the Royal Marines Labour Corps (RMLC) and the Royal Marines Engineers (RME). And don't forget that the Royal Marines Band Service wore RMB.
