I have read recently (in a quiz question) that
"
If a British infantry soldier has three stripes on his uniform on his wedding day what rank does he normally hold? Corporal (traditionally a solider is made up one rank for his wedding day)"

Is this tradition still upheld?
Did it ever exist or is this simply an apocryphal story?
prev Racism fuss but what about discrimination against gays

I would agree with heathfield and suspect it is hogwash.

I did not get made up on my wedding day, I just had a wash and shave.
