I doubt very much that it was a trial pattern. The SASC vertical stripes badge was introduced in 1998 as a unit flash, I obtained mine from the Corps in 2001, and it was approved by the ADC in 2002.

Unfortunately the published minuets of the ADC do not contain all the discussions of the meeting, in this case the decision was the same as a few others, TRF for SASC agreed.
