Hi,
I have tended to use the term NCO loosely for all ranks other than Officers, but I am refering to OR's.
As for the variations I have seen:
RAMC collars.
1. QVC officers silver/gilt (Full dress)
2. QVC OR's gilding metal
3. KC (RAMC) officers silver/gilt (Full dress)
4. KC (RAMC) officers bronze (service dress) - size as cap badge
5. KC (RAMC) officers bronze (service dress) - smaller size
6. KC (RAMC) OR's gilding metal
7. KC (In Arduis Fedelis) officers silver/gilt
8. KC (In Arduis Fedelis) OR's bi-metal (scroll in white metal)
9. QIIC officers silver/gilt (also worn by warrant officers)
10. QIIC OR's bi-metal (scroll in white metal)
11. QIIC OR's anodised with non-silvered snake
12. QIIC OR's anodised with silvered snake
Volunteer Medical Staff Corps.
1. QVC OR's white metal with scroll 'VOLR MEDICAL STAFF CORPS'
2. QVC OR's white metal with scroll 'VOLUNTEER MEDICAL STAFF CORPS'
RAMC(V) collars.
1. KC officers silvered (without extra tablet)
2. KC OR's white metal with extra tablet (VOLs)
Then there are also Militia Medical Staff Corps QVC gilding metal collars, and earlier MSC collars with garter and red cross in gilding metal and white metal.
And also various bearer companies collar badges.
Regards
Steven
