your right there...once at a re-enactment show in Netherlands we had a Royal Signals Officer with plastic polar bear badges on his uniform!when the TV company arrived he deserted his post and drove over to the crew on a wartime Ariel M/Cycle....I had a word with the 2 rather large Dutch MP's and all you saw on the news report was him being lifted away!Rank sometimes has its privled...also have to say while Im on my soapboxes those Dutch guys cant be beat for proper/correct re-enacting...best wishes to all malcolm a.k.a.
