Yes, I think that type of sweatband dates to the 1970's - 80's?
I may be wrong on that, but I think infantry recruits in the Queen's Regiment and the Royal Anglians were being issued caps with that horrible flesh coloured rubberized fabric sweatband in late 1972 / early 1973, and police helmets had the same sweatbands in the early 1980's. |

The badge isn't Grenadier Guards.

Thought the flame pattern was a little unusual despite 17 points - what is it, Canadian?
