This failed to get a reply, but since I resolved it by another route, I thought it worthwhile to post an update in case others go down this same path in the future!
From a photograph of the 1927 2/KRRC shooting team, it seems that WO2 and higher wore the 'cherry', Colour Serjeant and below did not.
I've attached below shots of RSM Jagger, CSM Done (probably) and one of the Colour Serjeants.
