Default battledress 21 SAS

Friends,

Some pics of my favourite 21 SAS battledress: 1949 pattern blouse, dated 1952, worn by a Lieutenant.

Standard configuration of (cut-off) shoulder titles, Mars & Minerva badge and 1944 pattern parachute wings.

Please notice the black-and-green Rifles lanyard. This is the thick lanyard worn by
21 SAS officers at the time. The OR lanyard was not as thick.

Also, note the black Rifles buttons (on the visible buttons) and the Korea medal ribbons.

Cheers,

Johan
