Default SOE captains in a french village

Bonjour,

Back to the forum after few months of hard work, I'm bringing a picture that I found among a huge box of photos in a little flee market. Unfortunately, it was the only of this era.


The captain on the right has a very strange beret with two eyelets behind the artillery cap badge when two more "snaps?" appear in the back.

We could observe the wings on the left chest worn at this place after a combat jump.

It is interesting to see the Forces Françaises de l'Intérieur armband (London type) worn by the man in the back.

If you have more infos, you're welcome...

Cheers

Valery

I think the officer on the right has a Cap, General Service. Regards, Paul. http://warrelics.eu/forum/USA-britai...diculous-3789/

Bonjour,

I agree with you but I'm going to do a close up and we could see the eyelest behind the bomb cap badge and at the back these strange snaps.
Thank you

Valery
