British Royal Navy Chief Petty Officer Cap Insignia . BMX106

British Royal Navy chief petty officer cap insignia. I believe this is a post 1953 example with the Queen Elizebeth crown. Approx 2 1/2 inches in height. ADDITIONAL NOTES Ratings in the Royal Navy include trade badges on the right sleeve to indicate a specific job. Branch badges include stars and crowns above and below the branch logo, indicating an individual’s qualification within their branch. One star indicates they have passed the required exam in order to be eligible to be selected for the Leading Rates course. Two stars indicate they are eligible to study for the Petty Officers Qualifying Exam (PQE). A crown indicates they have passed the relevant PQE and are eligible to be Petty Officer.   See Additional Information for shipping dimensions.
