WW2 British Airborne insignia

[Jack Dutton-Roberts]

Got this one today - it came from a local house clearance! (yeh I know you've probably heard it before but this time it's actually true) Couldn't believe it! 7th Battalion Para Regt BD Blouse named to Pte Dunne dated 1943, jungle shirt, documents. The blouse is a bit dirty but mostly it's ok - just dust etc from storage.

Christmas has certainly come early for you.

Great Find!

Beautiful find there Jack, you can tell by looking at that BD its a world apart from the 'carp' we see on ebay every week

Shame its not to L/CPL G S Dunn 6458281 AAC. That would of been extra special.

Rather nice grouping.

Stunning blouse collection Jack, that 7th Parachute Battalion one is a cracker.

Regarding the Recce. Corps BD on the previous page, is it named/numbered at all?

[Jack Dutton-Roberts]

Hiya shadwell, it's only got what could be the chap's initials ML although I don't know.

Jack.

No service book or photos unfortunately Scott with the BD!

Here's something for the Glider Pilot Regt collectors...a rare 2nd Battalion shoulder title.

Ah, there it is at last!

I was naive to think a 400 GBP bid would make me the new owner.
