Default Para, Glider, South Staffs group?

Greetings Gentleman,

I recently bought some knives from an elderly gentleman who is a retired British Military Doctor now living here in the US. He very kindly including a gift of some insignia which you can see here in the photo’s. He did not start his military career until just post WW2 and these were some pieces he picked up along the way. No big mystery as to what they are but I would be grateful of any thoughts as to whether any are WW2 or post war or what? As I mentioned they were a gift so I’m very grateful regardless. Your thoughts and or comments greatly appreciated.

Regards, Roy.

Hello Roy

The PR title (they switched to marroon in 1948 I believe) and South Stafford maroon glider badge are post war. The bi-metal South Stafford is K/C so can be ww2 or post war.

Cheers

JB
