Marc,

Yes indeed... that does seem to be the way of things alright A bit of this from here and a bit of that from the UK... and since the beret sized insignia for Officers and ORs will invariably be private purchase items... variations are bound to come into and out of available supply at Regimental Shops etc.

Thanks for sharing!
