SAS Shoulder titles

[irish]

Can anyone help me in dating these titles? Were these worn by the British or other country?. All help is much appreciated.

It is my understanding that these titles were worn during WW2 by the Free Belgium contingent of the British SAS or the 5th SAS.

Thank You Tonomachi, would these than be considered of WW2 vintage.

I agree they are WW2 made.
A lot of these showed up in the UK some 10 or 15 years ago.

I have two Belgian related titles in my collection.
One of Jozef Segers who joined the Belgian SAS in 1944.
(SAS in Blue letters)
And one of Vanden Reym another Belgian who joined in 1944.
(SAS in white letters)
Another pair of SAS titles I know is on a BD in a local museum.
Also blue (big) letters with a blue border around the title.

Cheers,
Marc

Marc, thanks for the input, great titles. This pair came from a group of insignia collected by a U.S. Officer "Airborne". He was in Post WW2 through into the 1960's. He accumulated some stuff along the way. there was also some post WW2 SAS wings. I may post these also.. If you look in maybe you can tell me a bit about these also.

Best
John
