You can recognise the Lord Lieutenant, Vice Lord Lieutenant and
some of the Deputies from the uniform worn on formal occasions.
It is based on the Number 1 dress uniform worn by general officers
of the Army - a symbol of the office's military origin.
In civilian dress on official occasions Kent's Deputy Lieutenants
wear a badge of office unique to the County. Its distinctive feature
is the diamond or lozenge-shape of the pendant that carries the
County's rearing white horse emblem above the motto: Invicta.
