Nice, thanks for sharing. I would have loved that RAAF Police helmet back in my MP collecting days.

Thank you for your comments. I was glad to get the RAAF liner, owned by a Doug according to the nickname written behind.

I try some frames now...

Very nice everyone. Australia in Vietnam ALWAYS brings up the excellent movie "Danger Close".

Nice badges. The KC version of the Royal Australian Regiment was only worn up to 1953. The QC version was worn during the Vietnam War.

Dear Mick,

Thanks for your comment. I am still looking for the QC version. Not so easy to find, surprisingly…!

However, a find in France this summer. «*L’espoir fait vivre*»



Best regards,

AATTV
