Perhaps an explanation of "chevron", "rocker" etc (whatever), would be useful here?

perhaps as a separate page... the terms are common to military ranks of the US, UK, Commmonwealth, and several others. Chevrons have points, rockers don't... direction of point is immaterial to chevrons terminology. Upward rockers sometimes are called arches in historical texts.
