Default Cloth finds from this weekends show

These are from my trip to the SOS show in Louisville. A mixture of titles. In the group is the still unknown Mountain title as well as a nice mix of volunteers. The bluish colored RA grenade may be a Bomber but will wait for confirmation.

thanks
Jack

Have searched around a bit but had not found a reference to the red on black British title. Any ideas what and when this may have been worn

thanks
Jack
