RM Subdued titles
Gents,
When were the black on green Royal Marine Commando titles brought into service? I did my AACC in 1990 and can't remember them been worn. Reason I ask there is a lot on ebay and the seller states 1987. Thanks |

Subdued RM Commando shoulder flashes
Ted
They are certainly not 1987. They came in the mid 1990s about the same time as Soldier 95 uniforms were first issued but definitely after the Purple Star series of exercises in the USA. Hope that helps. |

I think you will find he is referring to the photo;
"plus a photo of the injury, dated 23/6/ 87" Marc |
