Default Some curiosities

Some unusual items from my collection assembled for an annual show in Dorchester a few years ago. I live in hope of getting a positive identification of the ARMY COOPERATION - RAF title and the sign immediately below it. Mike

Some interesting and desirable titles there - I have the match for your unusual 5 Commando which I think came from Len Whittaker.
Do you have any background to the 1 COMMANDO set please - not a variant production I am familiar with.
Great to see so many curios
Mike

The only reference that I have to an RAF Army Co-operation Squadron was in a letter from a cousin who served in Burma, to my sister. It seems that there were several Squadrons designated as Army Co-operation Squadrons but I have no idea what shoulder titles they wore.
