Does Plate 56 say much?

The wing is Fig. 785 on Plate 56. The accompanying text states "Fig 785. illustrates the pattern thought to have been worn by the PPCLI in their parachute role in the fifties."
I'm going to check Lou Grimshaw's reference work next to see what he has to say about it. He may be able to confirm it as PPCLI. Bragg and Turner is a bit dated at 1979. I'll let you know what I find.
Cheers,
Dan.
