Hi Jerry,

Not with my notes but looks like an early pre-lug example.

Thanks again Chris and Frank. I was very lucky to fond this one for a very sensible price, along with a hand black painted para on lugs.

Nice badge Jerry. Theres an image in "modern british army regiments" of a Pioneer with beard wearing a cap rather than the beret. I dont know what year the cap was dispensed with.
