SAS chevrons
Good afternoon,
could you confirm that these Sergeant chevrons are from SAS ? I find the blue more grey than usual Laurent |

Difficult to tell from the photo - may just have been washed or laundered. See:

Thank you Tim.
Certainly washed as it was picked up on an uniform. It has still the blue sewing thread with it. Laurent |

Washed? I'd be suspicious in that case. I never ever saw SAS members with those chevrons on anything other than No 2 dress - which is dry clean only. They wore eppaulette slides on wooly pullys.

There are some about (unwashed!) that appear more grey than blue. Compare these examples.
