Hi to any ex 613 staff
Just a note to any ex staff members of 613 GS,I have had a very small batch of copies of my original badge made up,amazingly my original badge has survived in fairly good condition since being issued to me in 1970,however I would never risk wearing it :).
If any ex 613 staff members would like a badge please msg me - giving me your name and instructor or pilot cat/grade plus years served with 613,all personal details will be kept private.
I only have 4 spare badges as pictured below,the colours are not quite correct but pretty close,I also have 3 copies of a 'trial' badge which are identical except the white areas are slightly wrong (very light gold) but would be fine for using on a thermal hat etc.
Cost would be £5 to cover P and P only

Pictured below L = original Badge R = Copy

If you were a winch driver at 613, there are re-unions held every 3 months.
