  • Questions about uniform..

    Just wondering, does anyone know where i could get a lanyard and namebadge for the no1 uniform..

    Lanyard - isn't an issue item, it must be got through your unit

    Namebadge - it is an issue item and can be got from clothing stores. There is also a company that you can buy them from

              Why aren't lanyards on general issue?

                Because thats what the Admin Instruction says. The cost will not be bourne by public funds except for specific units and corps exempted due to the ceremonial nature of their unit or corps. There is a review underway and it is envisaged that they will be issued (probably on repayment) through OCES so as to standardise paterns, shades and thicknesses etc as there are wide variations throughout some units / corps

                  Lanyards ARE issuable, but only to the Military Police and Artillery

                  On that subject, with all the talk of esprit de corps, etc., what about that idea ?
                  Issuable lanyards, representing each corps of the Army ?

                  The Transport Corps, Cavalry Corps, and Ordnance Corps already use lanyards
                  which are variations on standard colours...

                    Because Admin Instr A9 says that they will not be bourne on the public expense with certain exemptions for certain units / corps that are highly involved in ceremonial eg MPs, Cav, Arty and one or two others that I cant think of.

                    They will be issued from OCES (most likely on repayment) in the not too distant future in order to ensure that they become standardised throughout units to eliminate the variations in shade, length, thicknesses etc etc

                        Are you talking about the metal name badges for SD1s? Don't know your rank OP but AFAIK these are not supposed to be worn by junior ranks? I'm sure someone will dig out the relevant regulation

                          If you are going on a course, such as POTs etc, they are required for SD No1s.
                          Usually in the Joining Instructions though.


                          Catch-22 says they have a right to do anything we can't stop them from doing.
