I've seen other photos of Canadians in Afghanistan wearing it, and always presumed it was unofficial - a good luck charm or just something they happened to like based on the reputation of the 1SSF. I wonder if, as with motorcycle gangs and their jackets, it isn't something 'outsiders' aren't supposed to enquire too deeply about. I wonder if the CSOR fellows were all that pleased to have their images on the CBC news website - a number of fellows from the reserves here have tried out for CSOR, JTF, etc., and have been (understandably) skittish about their online presence to the point of scrubbing the internet of their names and faces.
