Top one is tropical issue L/Cpl
Middle is standard L/Cpl
Both are used by all regiments would dont have specific stripes of different colours.
The last one,im not 100% sure it is Rifles.
The Rifles should be black stripes on rifle green outlined in silver. The ones shown look like just silver on black.

A Drum Major has 4 inverted chevrons surmounted by a drum.

Yours has 3 and is a Police Sergeant
