WW2 British RAF LAC Woven Rank Insignia Pair Uncut

The WW2 British RAF LAC Woven Rank Insignia Pair Uncut consists of two matching rank badges intended for the Leading Aircraftman (LAC) of the Royal Air Force during the Second World War. Produced in a woven construction, these insignia feature the recognizable LAC propeller motif on a blue-grey background, signifying the rank held by airmen after basic training but before promotion to senior ranks. Presented in uncut form, the pair remains as issued from the manufacturer, prior to being separated and sewn onto a uniform. Uncut insignia are less commonly found than individual examples, offering insight into original production and distribution methods of RAF uniform items in the WW2 period. Such insignia were typically attached to the upper sleeve of the standard service dress or battle dress blouse. This pair reflects standard pattern and material use of wartime manufacture and provides a representative example of RAF enlisted ranks’ insignia from this era.
