Details

The 'SB' badge was awarded to regimental stretcher bearers for efficiency. The badge was worn on the right arm.

White armbands with the letters 'SB' stitched upon them were generally worn on both arms by regimental stretcher bearers on service. While these armbands did not provide any legal protection under the Geneva Conventions, on most occasions regimental stretcher bearers were accorded the same privileges as Medical Corps troops.

These reproductions have been copied from an original example. They are made with wool thread embroidered onto a khaki wool backing.
