Yes, I was "struck" by the beret, tho' the badge isn't exactly above the eye.
"I Was Montys Double" (1958) has been doing the rounds of daytime TV, it shows what's obviously genuine wartime footage of Paras mixed in with close ups of 1958-ish Paras, the beret styles are very different, the 50's ones are worn "tented" rather like RM ones were during the 70's.
