. . . The garter tabs on the other hand were issued along with hosetops of regimental colour, in REME we wore navy blue hose tops and a red and yellow garter tab. The RA wore khaki hosetops and although I can't remember I'd guess at red and blue flashes.

REMEVMBEA1. In Malaya in '65 - '66, we REME attached to RASC/RCT had the navy blue hose tops, with putties, but our garter tabs were a light blue. I was under the impression that all REME tabs were light blue, unless your red and yellow were a regimental embellishment, unless that is, that ours were, as I can't remember what the RASC/RCT wore!
