This is what the RNZAF wear as a pin for a CAF’s Commendation:





Or the same for the RAAF:




Or for the Indian Air Force:



All of our uniforms are similar and so if they can do it then why not us?. The RAF Commendations come with nothing more than a certificate at present, which is a bit pants. A nice discrete pin badge would be a nice way of denoting exemplary service for those that don’t get a gong like QVRM, MBE, OBE, etc...

Wiggy and AT keep barking on about the Next Generation Air Force (#NGAF) on their Twitter feeds, isn’t this sort of modernisation exactly what we need? Millennials and Gen Zs thrive on public recognition according to most social scientists, then surely updating to something more modern, and a nod towards our pervious ethos, is the way ahead?
