Gurkha Parachute Formation Sign
Does anyone know what this is supposed to represent please? The back looks a bit messy.
One went on eBay for £241 this morning. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/GURKHA-PA...-/313836016934 Many thanks, Graham

154 was the rifle green version but the knives faced the other way i.e. with the edges of each of the blades facing towards the parachute. It does look Indian made of WWII type, but has someone made a costly error?
The arrangement of the blades on this one just sold is the same as for 153 Para Bn but theirs was sky blue. |
