Parachutist Badge. The Army pattern parachutist badge, a parachute with wings, should be worn on the right arm 51 mm below the shoulder seam, by personnel who are qualified parachutists as follows:
(1) Blue and white tunics. The full sized badge in gold on blue. On white tunics the badge is to be mounted on Velcro to permit removal for washing.
(2) Lovat tunics. A two-thirds size badge in gold on green.
(3) Mess jackets. The miniature badge (length 51mm, height 20mm) gold on scarlet. On white mess jackets the badge is to be mounted on Velcro to permit removal for washing.
(4) Stone tunics and shirts. The full-sized badge in light blue/white on khaki drill.
(5) Combat Dress (PCS Jackets and Windproofs). The full-sized badge in black on green. If black on green badges are not available, the full-sized badge in light blue/white on khaki drill may be worn as an alternative.
You'll notice however that the Gorget Patches worn by AR's character have gold buttons, whereas the real RM Lt Gen parading with Prince Harry has darkened buttons
Wot! No lanyard
