Information sought with regards Rank Insignia changes from WW2 Era.

[Connaught Stranger]

Hallo Fellow members,

Can anybody shed any light with regards when the Irish W.W.2 L.D.F. Style rank markings were changed for the more modern ones we associate with the Defence Forces circa 1960's, 1970's 1980's etc etc..

Please see illustration's attached of the old style. (You can click on them to enlarge,)

I note there seems to be no insignia for Privates?

Anybody got any of these items in there possession?
