This black wooden swagger stick is used by members of the Royal Regiment of Artillery, commonly referred to as the Royal Artillery (RA). Colloquially known as "The Gunners," they serve as the artillery arm of the British Army. The swagger stick features the Royal Artillery emblem on a silver metal ball top.
Swagger sticks are also commonly referred to as cane sticks. In the British Army and other military forces following Commonwealth traditions, commissioned officers of most infantry regiments formerly carried swagger sticks when on duty, whilst Warrant Officers and Senior NCOs carried pace sticks instead. This practice continues in some regiments, especially by Warrant Officers when in Barrack Dress.
