My Mum gave me a sixpence to go behind my wings that had belonged to my Great Uncle. When I took my 1's to the civvy tailor at Valley (off camp), she said that some people didn't know the tradition but that she still stitched in a 20p as she would never sew on a pair of wings without anything behind!

So check your 1's - you might be richer than you think!
