Default What is the Difference?

I have these two QARANC shoulder straps, but I am not exactly sure what they are, or what the difference is. My thinking is the one on the left is a QARANC tunic strap and the one on the right is a QARANC(R) ward dress strap. But this is just assumption on my part. Both were received from fellow members and I thank them sincerely for them!!!





Thank you for your help!

Terry

Hi Terry,
You are correct with the QARANC tunic strap.

The other one is a QAIMNS(R) tippet shoulder strap c. WWII (worn with a brass general service button)

Hi David, You are right, I did ask previously about the one on the right, but this time I am trying to understand the difference between the two, as I was recently given the one on the left and was wanting to know what it was and what it was worn on.
