We had established that a fair percentage of the disbanded 26th Hussars went on to serve as Chindits and going by the Insignia he was likely an Officer but most interesting with the help of Simon ‘Highwood’ the two maps that came with the grouping can possibly narrow down which column he was with.
Anyway it had been suggested to show it here if not just for others to see.

Hi Paul,
The embroidered slip-on shoulder titles shown are an ORs pattern, the officers’ “coloured” slip-on titles had a pattern of the 26H badge attached - regardless they are exceptionally rare slip-on titles.
A selection of mine, including only one officers’ slip:
