Hello Stan,
You asked:
.... My question is what do the five smaller chevrons stand for or mean?

My husband [who's into collecting Militaria] thinks these smaller
chevrons indicate length of service, though he's not sure how long each
chevron represents ... one year? three years?? five years??

Maybe someone else can confirm his thoughts and/or the period each
chevron represents.

HTH,
Norma
