Thank you Wooffy, I hadn't actually seen this so it is a great help as it covers the period I am interested in. I only came across this affair by chance last night browsing for information on the Somalia Gendarmerie and found a much longer article covering Captain Latutin's life in a journal on JSTOR, with so far the only photograph of an officer wearing the SG cap badge, and decided to investigate further.

Thanks again
