Hiya
I don't know for sure his details but a friend at work sent me this link to a pic he had spotted of a chaplain and which as you can see has the Sydney Opera House in the background. Its the 17th one as you scroll down.

The photo was from the Austrailan Defence.gov website I believe but when I tried to click on it again for it, it seems to have dissapeared.

The chaplain is wearing a purple band on his cap, and the rank badge for a colonel.

If you need some of this purple cloth I can supply you a piece. At great expense I got some from the supplier to the MoD, but they will only sell it by the metre off a huge roll!
I cannot find anyone else who will supply it in the correct colour, and it was the Chaplains Musuem who put me on to them, so I know it is right!
Regards
