For the Bomber and Mortarman sleeve insignia, where exactly do you put those? Dear Marcus- On page 47 of Brassey's "World War One British Army" there is a chart of proficiency badge placement. "Bomber" is listed on "Upper right". "Trench Mortarman" is also listed on "Upper right". They don't specify the exact placement. There are plenty of photos in the book showing the badges in place. The most common upper arm placement is about one third of the way down between the shoulder and the elbow. I did not notice any examples of soldiers having more than one proficiency badge. Cheers! Radford

Just what I needed! Thanks Seph. I did just order a book on British Battle Insignia 1914-1918.

I have that book from years ago!! I never looked that closely at the picture. Will do tonight. I had 2 other Osprey books in my cart today, but alas was going over my budget. I'll get them next month.
