No images of it. There was one on Bosleys a while ago,with a collar size badge fitted. Proves nothing though. Certainly doesnt dissprove the information that Bess has.
Could well have been worn for the tenure of 1 or 2 COs. From what hes said to me and the notes hes seen,there was only one production run by Dowler and no other maker produced them.
Most reference books state the beret badge is worn on a maroon diamond,but there is physical and photographic evidence that at some point in the 80s that the backing was shaped overlapping the edge of the badge. Yorkstone actually served with the guy whose image shows this.
