SAS wngs
A fellow collector has the following wings and large badge which were given to him from col John Waddy. John who is still alive won his decoration at Arnhem and served in Vietnam in the 60/70s, in what capacity l am not sure but letters he once had were addressed to the British Embassy Saigon. Could anybody tell the age of the wings and what the large badge is, possibly a blazer badge? Many thanks.

The para wing on the right on twill green is a Rhodesian SAS wing for the camo or work uniform. It was issued from around the end of 1970 when Rhodesia became a republic.
