1st Canadian parachute uniform, medals, badges and vinyl patches!

[capbadge]

Hey all,

I recently purchased a rare lot belonging to a member of the 1st Canadian parachute battalion, I thought I would share some of the pictures with you guys as there are some varients I have never seen. There are 5 wings, 2 cloth airborne and 1 vynal patches, as well as the uniform which still has the original patches on it. The best part I think is the medals with his two original cap badges, one in brass and another in bakelight.

I will post any pictures you guys need, I was wondering about the vinyl patch myself and the differences in wings.



Enjoy!

Seriously nice, I would give my eye teeth for those 2 cap badges. Will look up those wings tomorrow if someone doesnt beat me to it. Cheers Brian

Hi Brian,

If you could help me with identifying the wings I would be most grateful!
