Default South African Marines

Hi, I recently found this badge and started asking around as I had not found a chromed badge like this before. It turns out to be SA Marines, 1950's. An old time collector told me the first badge for the SA Marines was the artillery cap and collars in brass, but the work dress on board ships was the chromed cap badge. I found it very interesting and thought I would share it. Regards Andrew
