Default About proficiency patches

Hello! I think that in the uniform the proficiency badge goes in low left sleeve...but in a warrant officer battledress goes under or over the rank crown? Thanks!

Trubia, are you asking about the method of wearing on British uniforms or Canadian uniforms? Though very similar, there are differences.

Hello,

On British BD, Warrant Officers wouldnt have worn any proficiency badges, it was just for NCO's and men.

The only extra badges they could have worn were Instructors badges or in the Cavalry, Regimental badges, both of which were worn below the rank badge on the lower arms.

best wishes
