Default Good or bad Combined Ops patch

Hi folks,

Came across this in my "not sure" drawer does anyone have any views on if its ok or not. I think my concern was that its in great condition on the front.
Cheers
Sean

Regarding Printed Combined Ops insignia:
Not suggesting you do - but if any of the reverse is visible below the rear backing (the backing is a nice touch) then some 'bleed through' or 'shadowing' of the C Ops insignia should be visible. The back of the C Ops insignia (beneath your backing attachment) should of course be red - please see attached.
Looks good to me too
Mike

Just from the photographs you show, I too, would suggest that example is original.
