Dudley,
Excellent. Is the Crusader's shield that features on two versions of the 1 Sqn badge a link back to the SAAF in the Western Desert c 1941-42?

Hullo Mike

The shield is connected. 1 Sqn flew in the desert and "borrowed" it from the 8th Army!!

I'm sure that Eighth Army would have been flattered:
