    Can anybody help to identify this uniform?
    The photo is of Peter Brady [ formerly Buchholz ] German born,
    served in the British Army in WWII. Possibly SAS?
    Grateful for any assistance, Valerie

    Interesting that naturalization didn't occur until 3 years after the war, I would have thought that naturalisation would have been rushed through prior to enlistment..........


    NATURALIZATION LIST of ALIENS to whom Certificates of Naturalization have been granted by the Secretary of State, and whose Oaths of Allegiance have been registered in the Home Office during the month of May, 1948.

    Thank you Dave B. I already have this information.
    I was hoping someone might be able to give some clues as to the uniform, but I know there don't seem to be any identifying badges etc.
    From what I know, there is a strong chance it could be SAS.

    Looking at pic 2 it would appear to be a Denison smock, so SAS or Airborne would make sense.
