Volume 1: Royal Navy Officers' Insignia since 1856. This volume brings together all the rank and rate insignia worn by British Navy officers since the uniform regulations of 1856. The badges, buttons, stripes, wings and stars are listed separately and separated by rank and date of introduction. Where possible, illustrations of original pieces are shown, otherwise reproductions as true to the original as possible are used. Contemporary photos from the last 150 years show the exact wearing of the rank and service insignia.
