Thanks Ed, you may be right. The badge is a King's crown type rather than a Queen's crown type. As there is no history with this scarf we may never know.
I have the 20th and 25th anniversary issues of the Maroon Beret, in the 20 anniversay edition there is a nice picture of Lt Col. G Fraser Eadie in 1945 wearing a cammo scarf with a similar pattern. Post war COs are wearing a snipers veil as cravats.
