Default Royal Naval Division. Divisional Badge

Has anyone found the significance of the different colour RND Divisional, anchor within a circle, badge.

I now have two, there is also other colour combinations shown in Military Modelling of June 1985. I have also seen an illustration of a triangle version.

Unless you know otherwise, It possibly shows the difference between the brigades.

You may be aware by now but if not, the book Personal Distinctions states that the blue on red badge is the RND sign in general use and the red on blue was worn by the Royal Marines Medical Unit, cheers
