Fake LRDG Group
Currently there is a LRDG group on the Regimentals website which is fake. The group comprises a portrait photo of a soldier wearing a black beret with LRDG badge, a pair of New Zealand cloth shoulder titles and a fake LRDG badge.
The photo is of Corporal Dugan a REME soldier who was attached to the LRDG. I have two photos of Dugan, two LRDG badges, Articifer badge, MID oak leaf and some paperwork. Unfortunately the Dugan portrait image was left up on the dealers website from whom I purchased the group, the image has been copied and framed along with fake LRDG badge and New Zealand titles. I have contacted Regimentals about this but have been ignored. Prospective buyers beware. Keith Image of the Regimentals group...

The lengths that some people will go to, very disappointing.

I saw this 3 or 4 years ago at Stoneleigh on a dealers table, and then I am sure I saw it appear on an auctioneers website just afterwards.
All the best and well done |

Nothing surprising at all here. I know I keep harping about this, but 99% of anything LRDG is fake. The only way to be absolutely sure is hard provenance in my opinion.

LRDG
Is Regimentals on the forums unofficial 'be careful when buying from' list ? Seems that their name crops up quite often when discussing the selling of fake items.
