501 RAF Regt and No.1 PTS KC
All,
my latest 2 acquisitions. 1 from Yate and one from a member of the squadron:
- 501 Royal Auxiliary Air Force Regiment on an MTP blanking plate. This insignia has now been approved by the Powers that be and is worn by the Squadron. I presume that it has a (City of Gloucester) or a (City of Oxford) part of the title also, but not currently aware. There's also been a crown badge on black produced, my source tells me (but he didn't have one of them unfortunately).
- a King's Crown Number 1 Parachute Training School on black cotton. Never seen one before. Very high quality embroidery rather than the more modern printed on white cotton version.
