A further example of the 'Rubberised' Finish which was used from the mid 1980's. In this case for a Chef or Caterer.

As I have said before......You cannot fly on bad food!!!!!.......so these chaps had to do their job well.
"Quartermaster's Comment":-  Never quite certain as to "CHEF" or "CATERER"......No double Chefs in the Officer's Mess and Caterer's in the Sergeant's Mess!!! 73 mm across at its widest point. Worn from around the mid 1980's and well into the 1990's. I am sure that you had to qualify to wear this Half Wing......Not just be good at peeling potatoes!!!!
