I am putting together a collection of cloth Formation signs & shoulder titles for particular units that served in the Burma campaign in which my father took part as a Chindit, 2nd Battalion, the Duke of Wellington's Regiment..
I understand that 3rd Commando Brigade, Army Commandos 1 & 5 and R.M. Commandos 42 & 44 were in action at the Battle of Kangaw Hill.
Would these units have worn the Combined Ops. badge in addition to their own shoulder titles and is there any difference between the two types of Formation sign, i.e. circular and "tunnel" shaped ?.
Any advice would be most welcome,
Roger B.
