Red Arm Band.

Hello does any know which member of the military would have worn a red arm band . Any help would be most welcome. Thank you

 

Without a full description of the arm band, can only assume its a Military Police one..

 

Thank you for your reply . That is all I know

 

Unless it has a badges or lettering on it, could be anything, from an "exercise" armband - indicating which side you are - upwards. Military Police will have MP on it.

 

Unlikely to be Military police as the wartime armband was black with red letters.

Quite right... black on red post war.

 

The question is too vague to really give a positive answer.
suspect it's just a pub quiz question.

 

the Red Movement Control armband only came in post 1965 previously it was a white armband
