For the 1982 Tiger Meet hosted by 230 Sqn at Gutersloh all the crewman had name patches with CM brevets on them. Everytime I got new name badges I stuck with the CM brevet theme even on SAR. My last one is on the back of my helmet today here in the civvy SAR world. Once a crewman always a crewman!

Thanks for that, WT. Wasaloadie PM'ed me with the 'official' word why the CM brevet wasn't introduced.
I suppose the LM brevet covers a multitude of sins. And, boy, weren't some of the CM sinners!

CM Brevet
Some guys got QM Brevets and unpicked the stitching to make it read CM. Some of us were LM's who later became CM. I tend to have my manufactured brevets as either, depends upon my mood at the time. I recently had a No1 and was mortified when they put a WSop brevet on it instead of the LM brevet I had provided, so un-picked it and sewed a LM brevet on in its place.
