Valerie has sent me a photo of a Sailor to ID all I can find to help is an Badge or Insignia on his right arm, donating what he dose in the Navy....The Navys own site dose not show these badges and I can not find any that dose. Can you help. Do you know of any sites that show Job insignia for the Navy. The photo is probable WW1.

Peter, Try the following site: www(.)pbenyon(.)plus(.)com/Branches/... Otherwise try google search - there seem to be quite a few sites that touch upon the subject of Royal Navy badges of rank and trade. Ian

Its a bit blured but looks like it might be cross rifels with a crown or some thing above.
