Tony,
The only reference I have records that a khaki lanyard was worn by Warrant Officers.
It might be that officers also wore a khaki ‘whistle cord’ with Service Dress and possibly Battle dress. These are difficult to discern from photographs.
However, from this photograph of officers of the 1st Battalion at Aldershot in April 1939 it appears that some are wearing a whistle cord on the left shoulder.
