Master Lloyd von Eaker was my master and he used to call the people he trained his
students until Lady Syf.  He would call her his student and she would basically
say "Yes, boss." Then wear her red belt and proudly proclaim herself as a squire.
Lloyd finally gave in and all of us that came after wore red belts and were
squires.

No one under Lloyd's banner wore red baldrics as far as I know.
