Default Officer Cadet White peak

As in the First World War the officer cadets of WW2 wore on their headdress a white cap band. In order to save material, in October 1942 the white cap band was replaced by a white peak if the cadet wore the Field Service Cap.

I am trying to find a photo of the white peak being worn by the Army - there are plenty of it worn by the RAF as shown - for use in the Military Historical Society's 2021 Annual special publication on British Army Headdress 1939-1945.

If you have an image I can use please PM me.
