I thought I'd post this interesting ditty up from 'British Army Uniforms and Insignia of World War Two' as there was/is a bit of a discussion regarding Royal Signals Berets during WW2 which can be found here : The Royal Corps of Signals Berets.
Drew, my apologies for ignoring the Beret aspect of this thread... ...but are those Vickers "K" Guns on the turrets of the Churchill MkIs??? :mellow: Or the strange round drum Hi-capacity magazine for the Bren Gun???
I was privileged to wear two different types of beret during my service. 1. The Royal Artillery 2. The Royal Armoured Corps
Andy If you are talking about correct Army nomenclature then I'm sure that you're right. I've never given the matter a lot of thought, just considered the RA was brown, the RAC was black. Sorry ! Regards Ron
