Archer do a set that are marketed as WW2, but will do up to the mid 90's before we started wearing rank slides.

Sgts Rank Chevrons for the Parachte regt were the same as those for a normal Infantry Regiment. The Bronco British Paras and the Masterbox ones both have decals including rank and Para wings etc

I second the Archer set, they are great. Note that they are dry transfer, and they best apply using the Archer Wet Paper for dry transfers.
