Very impresseive and perfect know-how.
I believe the first official refefence to the re-introduction of the tan beret, is 12th October 1956 when the war offoce dress committee approved to re-adopt the tan beret for all members of the sas regiment. The war office confirms this in a letter dated 2nd nov 1956 to HQ SAS regiment and stating that a proto type tan beret will be forwarded in due course to the colonel commandant for agreement.
Will try to locate this letter.
Cheers,
JB
