Special Air Service Cloth Beret Badge

2 Attachment(s)

Would appreciate members thoughts on this Special Air Service cloth beret badge.
I suspect that it is genuine, just a little modern.
Any views appreciated and welcome.
Will be offered for sale if and when judged to be genuine.

Thank you

Paul

The weave on rear looks similar to a copy I had a while back.

Paul, looks like a private purchase one, that was all the rage at one time. Think it came from sunset militaria, don't quote me but there are those on here who would know. Regards Mark

A modified or specially made badge for a charity event ? :confused:

SAS Who Cares Wins 64KM run!

I came across this SAS ‘who cares wins’ charity event. This is something I have signed up for and currently taking part in! The goal is to run 64KM throughout the month. When you sign up, your money goes to a charity called ‘combat stress’ but I’m hoping to raise more money for this charity!
