claymore Posted 26 March , 2011 Share Posted 26 March , 2011 Did RFC officers (e.g. Lt, observer) wear a different cap badge and collar insignia than non-commissioned ranks? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottmarchand Posted 26 March , 2011 Share Posted 26 March , 2011 Basically - yes. Officers wore solid cast bronze, or stamped bronze cap and collars at times. OR's were stamped brass. There will of course be exceptions and IIRC pre war RFC officers dress insignia wash gilt over cast bronze. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
