Ello guys, one more grouping, and abit closer to home per say ;)

I picked this group up awhile ago from old Waf, I could not help myself ;)

The photos should tell abit as there is a little to read ;) I believe there was another part of this on ebay that sold, that the bloke I bought this from, missed out on,

but enjoy anyhow guys ;)

Please note, the badge is not original to the beret. The beret had all the correct fittings for the 2 part badge, but it was missing this, so the last owner corrected this ;) But the beret itself, is a nice dated 43 kangol ;)

Very nice group Ric. Always worth adding something like this to ones collection, even if it did not come with knife it's still a little piece of Commando history.

Congrats on a super find.

All the best, Roy.
