Flaming grenades
The number of flames on the RE grenades has changed over time. Does someone have the dates that the 10 flame grenades were worn?
Thanks.

A date I picked up from a series of articles in Crown Imperial by I think Frank Stevens had the 10 flamed grenade worn prior to 1922

I have never seen a 10 flamed grenade, only 9, do you have an example to show?

Thanks. So all 9 flamed RE grenades must be post WW1.

I have acquired some embroidered 10 flame grenades. Were these worn by sergeants?
I will post images when they arrive.

I do know that the ten flamed "UBIQUE" Officers collar badge was also worn by some Artillery Officers during WW1.
