Gurkha maroon beret
Surfing on the net, I have found pictures of Gurkhas paras with a backing on their maroon beret. Is it a new embellishment ?

The 1st Bn is now part of 16 Bde, based in Shorncliffe and so wear the maroon beret - they also wear a black triangle patch (some former Gurkha para significance but not sure what) as well as their normal TRF. The 2nd Bn is part of 11 Bde, based out in Brunei and wear the normal green beret. I would assume the 3rd Bn will wear the green beret and maybe the SpIB badge (?) when they form.
