Hi Pals,

Question for artillery experts. on Johns photo there seems to be a pip of some sort on his shoulder behind the rfa brass badge, any idea what it is,

also on his right arm is a lanyard what does this signify

Any help much appreciated.

Not an expert but could the "badge" above RFA be a "T"?

It was worn by TF units.

The lanyard, should be worn on the left shoulder, was for the pocket knife and gunners also had a fuse key on the end of it.
