Has anyone ever seen collar badge versions of this badge? Do they exist?

Mick,
I doubt there would be collar badge versions as they are "trade" wings. D Coy wore RAR hat and collar badges. In fact, I have doubts about the badges. To the best of my knowledge D Coy 6RAR wore the standard para wings. Do you have a provenance for them? Best wishes Chris |

No mate - I know very little about them.
John O'Connor in his book "Australian Airborne - The History and Insignia of Australian Military Parachuting" does mention them however. I don't have my copy with me at present but will have a look at it when I get home next week. As a collector, I'm just going to include it with my other para wings in my collection. Mick
