Enfield1940 Posted February 25, 2014 Posted February 25, 2014 Hi, A friend recently picked up this tidy but de-badged 1984 type Para Smock. It once had the usual wings on the right arm, but I wonder if anyone has any ideas what the rectangular badge missing from the left arm might have been? (As DZ patches are usually square) I was also curious to know if anyone had seen a Pegasus badge on the back of the neck before? No maker name on the label, so I assume it was made circa 1995-2010 unless anyone has any better ideas? Thanks, Mark Quote

Thanks for that. So can I assume that the left arm badge would likely have been a TRF for one of the units in the 5AB? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/5th_Infantry_Brigade_(United_Kingdom)#5th_Airborne_Brigade I've asked for a picture of the front.

Davey089 Posted February 25, 2014 Posted February 25, 2014 No that's right arm , left arm would be the same as the collar one or the same but Maroon/Blue Quote
