Default Armourer branch - post 1950 rate badges

With the reorganization of the Branch & Trade structure of the RCN in 1949, the Armourer rates adopted the logo of the wartime rate badge, with the addition of added letters below the logo to indicate the specialization to which the wearer belonged...

ie: AM = Armourer’s Mate, G = Gunnery, T = Torpedo, C= Control (Electrical & guidance systems), & no letter = Ordnance Artificer at PO & CPO level.

Shown below are the rate badges for the Armourer branch:
