These belong to my current boss, hopefully may be my own soon.
All I know is they belonged to his recently deceased father or uncle. His father served with the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders and was part of the first wave on D-Day, Juno beach with the Canadians I am told. His Uncle, (fathers older brother) served with the Guards
Question, what is the cloth patch, I have tried searching today during work but am only going around in circles, I believe it has Scottish connections
Sorry for the poor pictures but I had to tale quick pictures off site with my iPhone
Re: Commando Shoulder Titles and Mystery Cloth Badge
The titles look like the early war type, which are handmade and are not all the same, maybe better pics will change my mind, but not a fan from these pics. As I said, not something I have studied and I could be wrong Martin.
Re: Commando Shoulder Titles and Mystery Cloth Badge
I would be really surprised if the titles were wrong, they looked good to me in my hand, felt backing similar to some Brit made 101st Airborne and 1st Airborne patches I have had recently, but whoo knows !! haha They were just in a little cardboard box with a France and Germany Star and Defence Medal.
Perhaps sadly the farther has been telling his son some tall stories about being part of the first wave on D-Day !!
I will try and get better pictures but it may be difficult, we had to go to his house to take these, if we brought a camera on site we would be shot ! haha
