Default SAS title

hi,

SAS title is original. Fifties, this sample is unworn, apparently.

Cheers,

Johan

Recce titles are good, a slightly less common and smaller pattern.

Yes WW2 - Reconnaissance Corps Broadly dated 1941-1946 - per attached

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reconnaissance_Corps

The internet is a useful resource for research - not always 100% but a good starting point

Hoping this helps
Mike

PS - Quite a few Reconnaissance Corps titles of varying sizes have turned up recently.
