Indeed I did get mixed up After some clarification from RHQ the badge I`m getting muddled up with is the Corporals Arm badge. These were disliked by the regiment and every last badge returned to the manufacturers. They are often seen for sale on eBay.

They did make up some rank arm badges as worn by Cpls and above, but the first pattern was so awful, they were sent back to the manufacturers, you still see them come up on E-bay. Soon after they adopted an embroidered arm badge which they still wear today.
By the way OC14 you have missed a Motto from your list, the 'the colour plate'.
