Air Despatch
Paul,
A nicely set up display. Perhaps you could share more information about the RASC cap badge with the yellow plastic backing in the bottom centre of the picture. I was under the impression this was used to denote instructors in the RASC schools etc. What is the airborne link? Thanks, Stephen.

As I am an Air Despatcher, it’s always good to see. Love it. Out of interest, what is the AAC cap badge relation? Only thing I can think of some horsa gliders did have AD roller fitted with pilot and 2nd pilot being AAC?
Cheers Matt

All the airborne units (para, Glider and air landing & SAS) were originally part of the AAC.

My comment was more by way of a theoretical reasoning rather than a statement of what was actually worn Matt, especially in regards to a collectors display.

Thanks for all the responses.
The insignia is from different sources, the Yellow Airborne came together, as did the Dakota patches. I added the AAC as I thought they would have come under the same banner. As for the RASC cap badge and shoulder titles I do not know if they even wore them. I have looked extensively and information is sporadic, and I cannot find any good pictures for reference. Any further information would be appreciated. |
