The AA Units on Malta did not come under command of AA Cmd.
The pattern of AA Cmd badge on the BD is post 1945, if I am correct this blouse once belonged to a member of 50th HAA Regt RA formed in 1947 by the redesignation of 4th HAA Regt RA which had served on Malta during WWII. The removal of the shoulder designations would have been done as per regulations when they became obsolete, and the formation badge and regimental flash stayed on till the demise of AA Cmd in 1956.
