I think this should answer any questions about Lanyard wear.... Most of the Canadian Military has abandoned the Lanyard in their every day Duty Wear. It's mostly reserved for dress occasions. But here's a website with pictures and brief descriptions....

What must you do if your personal water craft is equipped with an engine cut off lanyard?

If your personal watercraft (PWC) is equipped with an engine cut-off lanyard, it is essential to wear it securely while operating the craft. The lanyard connects to the ignition system and will shut off the engine if you fall off or are thrown from the PWC, preventing it from running away or causing accidents. Always ensure the lanyard is properly attached to both the operator and the craft before starting the engine. Regularly check the lanyard for any wear or damage to ensure it functions correctly.


Why do the Royal Engineers wear the lanyard on the right?

I suspect the same reason the Artillery do, the lanyard moved to the right shoulder when bandoliers were in use and worn over the left shoulder, of course at that time the RE would be wearing a plain"working" lanyard to secure a clasp knife or similar, they didn't have a "dress* lanyard at that point afaik. As to the old RE story (fantasy?) of being "awarded" the blue lanyard after taking over guns, that has long been disproven, not least as the RE blue lanyard was adopted in 1951 "to brighten up the battledress", and of course the RA didn't wear a blue lanyard in the first place... :-D

What is the history of the black lanyard that royal engineers wear?

Lanyard - The Royal Engineers lanyard is navy blue and worn on the right shoulder. Since 19th century plain lanyards were used for securing the jackknife which was issued to all mounted troops. It was intended to be worn around the waist but soldiers soon found it to be more convenient to wear it on the shoulder with the knife in the breast pocket. The Royal Engineers, as did other corps and regiments of the British Army, introduced the lanyard to brighten up their battledress uniform in 1951.

What is the metal ring on the bottom of pistol grips called?

The metal ring on a pistol or revolver is called a lanyard ring. A lanyard is a piece of thin cord, that clips to the ring, and then is looped around the shoulder, usually as part of a military or police uniform. It's been a while, but US and UK military police used to use lanyards as part of the military uniform from about World War I to the recent past.
