Members with an interest in the SAS might be interested in the attached drawing which appeared in Bulletin No7 of the Military Heraldry Society issued in October 1952 in the section devoted to new badges spotted by members. It shows an identical title to that first posted
At that date it seems very unlikely that anyone was making fake badges to fool collectors so does this suggest that the badge was made - the example shown is quite well made - possibly in Britain but never used as the regiment was in Malaya?
If not can anyone suggest why it was around in 1952?
