St John Ambulance Ranks and Insignia
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Based upon the British Army officer and the British Army other ranks structure and insignia, the original ranks of the St John Ambulance Brigade had several modifications. With the Brigade terminology now deprecated in favour of a less military style, many of these ranks have still been carried over. The basic "star" or "pip" has at its center the eight point Maltese Cross, badge of the Order. The crown used is that of the Order. At the higher general list ranks, cross stretchers are used rather than the cross sword and baton. Insignia is in silver, again symbolic of the Order of St. John.
National variations occur. Canadian types are presented below.
NOTE that The Military Equivalent Rank is not sanctioned by the St. John Ambulance Canada Brigade to be used as a form of Address. Sir/Ma'am, Mr./Mrs./Ms. etc. are to be used instead of military-style rank.
