Chaplain, with rank of Colonel] The rank of an officer in service uniform is indicated by metal insignia of rank worn upon the shoulder straps and also (for officers below the rank of Brigadier General) by stripes of worsted braid around the sleeves just above the lower edge and by worsted insignia of rank worn on a three-pointed strap which crosses the sleeve stripes on the cuffs. These insignia of rank are shown in the accompanying illustrations and are as follows for the various grades of rank:— Field Marshal Two crossed batons in red surrounded by a wreath of gold laurel leaves and surmounted by a British crown in gold and red. General A baton and sword crossed with a diamond shaped device above it and a crown above the diamond, all in gold. Lieutenant General A baton and sword crossed with a crown above it, all in gold. Major General A baton and a sword crossed with the diamond above, all in gold. Brigadier General The same omitting the diamond. Colonel Two diamonds and a crown in a vertical line. Lieutenant Colonel The same omitting one of the diamonds. Major A crown. Captain Three diamonds in a vertical line. Lieutenant Two diamonds in a vertical line. Second Lieutenant One diamond. The officers of the Scottish and Highland regiments wear the stripes on the cuffs in a curve from the outer edge of the sleeve to a higher point at the inner edge of the sleeve and the insignia of rank beneath these stripes in a horizontal line instead of in a vertical line as described and illustrated for the other officers. The wearing of the insignia of rank upon the shoulder straps except by officers of the rank of Brigadier General and higher has been suspended when on actual duty in the field. The insignia worn upon the front of the cap by a Field Marshal consists of two crossed batons in red surrounded by a gold wreath and surmounted by a gold and red crown above which is a gold British lion; for General officers it is the same except that instead of the two batons there is one baton and a sword crossed; permanent Staff officers wear the crown and lion only on the cap; and a Field Marshal, General officers and permanent Staff officers of field rank or above wear a scarlet band around the cap.
