Mervyn Mitton Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 Had a nice old chap come-in last week.- he is a former Rhodie and had these items from when he lived there. Firstly some UDI badges - nicely mounted to hang in a study. ------------------------------------------------http://gmic.co.uk/uploads/monthly_06_2012/post-6209-0-38907300-1340978927.jpgCLICK TO ENLARGE------------------------------------------------ Right column : Signals ; Southern Rhodesia Artilery ; Engineers ; Medical ; Pay Corps.

peter monahan Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 Don't disbelieve you for a minute, but could you explain the differences, please? What I like best about this forum, besides Chris' beer photos, is the sharing of info. by many many members, each expert in his or her own field.

rhodesianmilitaria Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 (edited) Lots of differences. I had a lot of info about them on my website but last week I shut my site down after 7 years. Two examples below, both worn after 1970. Second photo shows two different variations of the RhSAS para wings for the camo (combat) uniform.
