Jim, I'm sorry but I have to take issue with the second site you guided Mark to. The Australian Site you mentioned is atrocious. I surfed to the British SAS part and nearly all but the most modern of badges, the badges are copies, in most cases really bad copies and in some cases ie: The guards SAS beret badge are pure fantasy items. I didn't even bother with the other countries.

Please, readers do not buy tripe off Ebay on the strength of that site. I suppose it helps navigate the jungle purely by what not to buy.

and the second is the Australian Military Reference (http://auspfor.tripod.com) which includes the Special Air Service Insignia of the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth,

Hope this helps,
Jim
