Dodgy Special Forces cloth titles?
Hi
Can you have a look at these please, probably all fake but just checking. The Light Tank Squadron has the tell tale spaghetti back and a fair bit of mothing. Commando red/navy looks a bit better. 3 Commando I have had for years and thought it was good till i recently looked at the back. Cheers Sean |

Thanks Tim, I have the one you show and I think in a previous thread you and others pointed out to me that this was a Royal Navy item. The one i have pictured I thought was purporting to be a WW2 commando title.
Maybe someone could comment? Cheers Sean |

The top one is a common fake originating from the sub-continent, with the horrible, thin embroidery. The modern Commando also exists in subdued patterns in black on sand and black on olive - anyone claiming it as WW2 is in error or intending to deceive.
