Other Ranks, Cap Badge 1919 Pattern

Usually worn on the centre of a peeked cap or the side of a field service cap, this badge was common to all Other Ranks up to and including the rank of Flight Sergeant.

While the crown, material and size has varied over the years, the basic design of the cap badge has remained the same to this day. This example demonstrates the RAF’s rigor for maintain uniform standard as the badge has lost most of its detail due to repeated polishing.
