Thank you for the quick and detailed replies.

I don't think this is my man, please let me explain. The name Ronald C RIDOUT is inside the liner of a Aden Protectorate Levies tropical helmet, the helmet also has a RAF (?) pagri flash.

I know from 1942 the APL were officered by the RAF Regiment and presume, rightly or wrongly, that RIDOUT was an RAF Officer?

A couple of images of the helmet attached, I would welcome your thoughts...

Enjoy the hobby, Keith
