    Portuguese paratroop

    Can anyone provide any insight to how to date a paraquedista uniform or authenticate a beret that isn't marked?

    I dont know anything about Portuguese militaria but pictures will help if you try to ID something.

    Good luck with it!

          Not sure if this will better assist with your question. The below link has some discussion related to Mozambique history.

            Thanks! That was an awesome read, but it all occurred after the Portuguese pulled out in 1974.

              sbi11,

              I can not tell you how to identify an unmarked beret as per your question but here is a link to a forum that might help. Seems to be a lot of info here in your area of interest.

              Regards,

                Thanks for the help! I had seen that one before. I guess this timeframe isn't much collected.
