Yes, agree Queen's (Royal West Surrey) Regiment. But it's the Royal Warwicks, please - not the Warwickshires...

The 'upside down' stripes are good conduct stripes. I think one per 12 months of undetected crime, but don't quote me on that.

The signal flags are a qualification badge: he is a 'signaller', so could send messages using semaphor flags or a semaphor lamp.
