A mint condition example of an original Rep. of South Africa Defense Forces Parachute Instructor qualification insignia.  This is an older messdress (small) version of the qualification insignia, having a flat, enamel parachute ad center, not a lucite covering.  This insignia is Bragg & Turner ident No. 398 and ident No. 102 in Mike Evert’s “Parachute Wings and Special Forces Insignia of Southern Africa, 1995” and ident No. C297 in Colin Owen’s “Military Badges and Insignia of Southern Africa”.

Payment by normal means as used in the past, will provide address, in addition to Paypal.  Domestic shipping $2.00 un-insured regular mail or $3.85 for insured U.S. mail, however will always combine shipping of multiple winnings.  Foreign air mail rate is $4.00.  As foreign insured mail is not available, can ship via registered mail at cost of $8.75.  These rates reflect the new U.S. Postal Service increase.  Please contact within 3 days of auction ending.  Please contact me with any questions.
