Jerry,
With the exception of the 9 Para Sqn DZ flash I don’t think you will find many. This is because by 1969 few cloth formation badges were being worn and the issue of dpm combat dress in 1970/1971 resulted in an order that with very few exceptions none should be worn. That situation remained generally until Gulf War 1 and the Balkan deployments in the 1990s when Formation Badges and Tactical Recognition Flashes began to proliferate! Tim
