British Military Sergeant’s Sash

The British Military Sergeant’s Sash is a traditional item of ceremonial
dress, worn by sergeants and certain senior non-commissioned officers in
the British Army.

Key Details:

Color: Usually crimson (dark red), a long-established tradition in the
British Army.

Material: Made of worsted (wool) or silk with a distinctive woven pattern.

Style: Worn around the waist, with the ends hanging down on the left side
of the body.

Fringes/Tassels: The sash typically ends in knotted fringes.

Regimental Variation: While crimson is standard, some regiments have their
own traditions and may use different shades or details.

Symbolism & Purpose:

Historically, the sash had a practical role: it could be used as a bandage
or stretcher for wounded soldiers.

Ceremonially, it is a badge of rank and authority for sergeants and above,
especially on parade and in full dress.

It is often paired with the sergeant’s sword or worn with dress uniforms
for formal occasions.
