British Army Parachute Regiment Badge
This is a British Army Parachute Regiment badge, dating to the World War II period and featuring the King’s Crown. The badge is constructed with a detailed parachute design, crafted in a gilt finish. The central motif displays a crown above a ribbon bearing the motto “Swift and Bold”, emblematic of the regiment’s ethos. This badge would have been affixed to the beret or other headwear of a soldier serving within the Parachute Regiment during this era.
