Default Cap Tally

I was recenly sent a picture by a friend which showed Armed Forces personnel who had been working at the recent Wimbledon tennis championships. The one that caught my eye was a Sikh naval rating wearing a turban and an H.M.S. Queen Elizabeth tally (see image below).

I have seen Sikh naval officers and senior rates wearing their cap badges on their turban but I have never seen a Sikh rating wearing a cap tally before. I just thought it might be of interest.
