Yes - agree the badge on the chocolate beret image Jon (Postwarden) and I posted, is strange. The badge on the IWM example is much more like one would expect. However, please forgive me not posting images of templates (one wing, one headdress badge) which came with the Rhodesian Grouping I posted earlier. The templates - if intended for use - would have produced a smaller than usual headdress badge. Difficult to picture exactly what it would look like, but could be very similar to the unusual one on the chocolate beret Jon (Postwarden) and I provided images of. Existence of templates MAY suggest expedient manufacture.
