HC Deb 29 October 1918 vol 110 c1306W
Sir H. GREENWOOD

asked the Under-Secretary of State for War whether he is aware that colour-sergeant instructors of musketry who were recently promoted to the rank of warrant officers Class II. are being compelled to continue wearing their non-commissioned officers chevrons; whether he is aware that dissatisfaction has been caused by depriving these warrant officers of the proper mark of their new ranks; and what action he proposes to take to remedy this state of affairs?

Mr. MACPHERSON

Under the existing regulations the badges of rank of a company sergeant-major instructor in musketry (formerly colour-sergeant instructor in musketry) are a crown and crossed rifles. If my hon Friend will furnish me with particulars of the cases he has in mind I shall be happy to make inquiries.
