NZ military police beret
I have just acquired a navy blue/black beret (no label - lining cut out) bearing an anodised EIIR ‘Royal NZ Provost’ cap badge on a Royal blue badge backing. I understood that the beret colour changed for NZ military police from Royal Blue to dark blue in 2002 and that the cap badge changed from ‘Royal NZ Provost’ to the current ‘RNZMP’ in 1981. This would seem to indicate that my beret is wrong (and a ‘put- together’) but the badge looks like it been on the beret for ages and not disturbed, so could there be any other explanation for this anomaly?
