Special Constable Ranks - Gloucestershire Constabulary

The request was successful.

Dear Gloucestershire Constabulary,

1. Does the Special Constabulary currently have a rank structure?
If yes:
2. What are the names of the ranks?
3. What rank insignia do they use? (Please provide pictures if possible)
4. When did the Special Constabulary move to their current insignia?
5. Does the force use any force emblems on their rank sliders/epaulettes? If so, please describe or include image.
6. If the insignia differs from regular officers, are there any plans to transition to match regular officers?
7. Does the force use the SC and Crown to identify Special Constables?
8. Are any collar number prefixes, suffixes or other divisional markings used to identify Special Constables?

Yours faithfully,

Chris Burns
