PS: has anybody seen evidence of the badge being worn on a black beret?
Friends,

I checked with my source. Please find attached some pictures of the black beret with M&M badge. This was picked up together with the sand beret straight from the 21 stores in 1996.

He will verify the exact colour of the beret also: black or dark blue.

Cheers,

Johan

Default 21 SAS M&M beret 1996

Johan,

The beret is a very dark blue. This one came via a 21 PSI in 1996. My understanding that this beret was only worn that year.

Best regards,

Andy

Hi Andy,

You are quite correct! My source confirmed it is indeed
dark blue. And yes: shortlived.

Good thing we can now be sure the M&M
beret badge was indeed worn for a period of about one year in 1996 and on both sand and dark blue beret.

Cheers,

Johan
