Here are the RM wings with NSN (I hope - first time I've posted a pic on here...)

and the three versions I have for RN No.4 dress.

I'd be interested if there are any others post WWII?

That's not correct.

If Row 2 No1 isn't OZ, (4th RAR), does anybody know what it would be?

Definitely Cameronians. They are completely different colour to Rifle green when placed side by side. Can't say if it's original from the photo as there are a lot of modern copies about. The odd original one does turn up in a dealer's book at militaria fairs for about £3 now and again!

Thank you all for the info. It looks like I may have them all sorted. I suppose most of them are look-alikes but as it's all about looks, I don't care that much.

Would anybody have a nice scan of the Royal Green Jackets black/gold/green wing? I seem to remember they are gold bullion wire on black on green. Would the size be the same as the others? I just emailed Ian Kelly and he tells me in 20 years he's only seen 2 of them.

Thanks,

These are some Royal Green Jackets variants. The right hand example was used for the 1st pattern of The Rifles wing. The Rifles badge is edged in silver rather than gold.
Ive seen a number of RGJ wings in the last year,most have been in auction lots with other wings .
