Clive, these are not in my accumulation, though I would like to have such a pair.
Further question, the Beach Group order of battle was composed of British troops. Did any Canadian troops wear the patches?

The Beach Groups sign was worn so that the fouled rope looked like the letter S when worn on the right arm.

Thanks again for the additional pictures.

Like Bill said I did not even know that they were issued in matching pairs. Very helpful.

Thanks Mike. Another patch to put on the want list.

Unfortunately, I lost the caption data following a PC virus attack a few years ago so cannot tell you where this came from (possibly BillA?)
