WRAC Major, Jimmy & badge question

[maering]

Hi all

I wonder if you can help I'm looking for a Major's WRAC badge equivalent to the style of the pips in the Photo. Second I'm wondering why the Jimmy for the WRAC arm badge is seen more as LF than RF although they appear to be in pair sometimes ? Third, what is the Crown & arrows badge. It appears to be Suffolk, but I can't find it in a military context.

Thanks

Mel

The crown badge is that of the TA's 54th Division formed in 1956 which is a depiction of the crown of Edmund Saxon king of England.

It only exists in the woven version shown.

I would've thought that right facing Jimmy's would be more common than left facing as on some orders of dress rank chevrons would be worn only on the right arm rather than both.
Then again perhaps that's left a surplus of left facing on the shelves, on to the market.

Do you know which orders of dress for WRAC that might be so please ? I've not see any one a uniform so hard to know

Right arm only on combat smock and Jersey, Heavy, Wool, (and worn in shirts leave order on shirt / blouse or brassard?), both arms in no 2 dress.......
