Things that please you...

Yeah my dad's one looks the same. Did your gold also come off?

The one I am referring to was the one you guys had to sew on yourselfs.
Sew his(mine) on velcro and placed it on my body vest.
The sew-on patches only came after I finished my 2 years national service.

No, the gold did not come off. I was awarded a silver badge. There were three different badges awarded. Marksmanship badges were categorized into classes, such as 1st Class Gold, 2nd Class Silver, and 3rd Class Bronze (often associated with basic qualified marksman or 3rd class/bronze shot levels). If you were not awarded a badge, you were considered to be an ordinary rifleman.
