Does anyone know if the UK military, moreover the Royal Navy & the RAF trained Phyisotherapist & Radiographers?  Also what badge is given to Tri Service trained nurses & AHP's?  Also, regarding the Army trained Radiographers & Physiotherapist badges, the gold colored X-Ray symbol for Radiographers & the blue enamelled bordered badge with the red center & serpent for Physiotherapists, are these the only pattern.  The army has changed design over the years, 3 variants, unlike the RAF.

There is a R.N. school of Physiotheraphy badge and a joint school of Radiography badge (for all three services), there is also a Remedial Gymnasts badge for the Army.
