I've never seen Tamil Tigers having rank insignia, but because the LTTE authorities specified that they indeed have a system of ranks, would they have insignia similar to the Sri Lankan Army?

A look at Wikipedia did list various members with rank titles and they do indeed wear uniforms. However I can find no visible rank insignia on their uniforms.

Would the LTTE, if they ever adopt rank insignia, have insignia on the British pattern as most South Asian countries?
