    Well the limited interaction I've had with Hereford chaps, they do indeed have their own style of chevron, exactly as depicted in the link. They're thicker/deeper, giving the illusion of being less wide. I've seen them on R SIGNALS and RLC blokes. They also wore them on each shoulder on woolly pullies which will be why there are two of them.

    All in all, the genuine article, it seems to me. But the bigger question is WTF is somebody other than an RLC Sgt attached to Hereford going to do with them?

    I like to tell people I can weld anything but Kryptonite. If Superman won't touch it, neither will I.

    velcro and popper attachment system so you can adjust the layout.
    Has vlecro and lacing adjustment on the shoulders and sides with centre front zipper panel to give extra width for fitting on over bulky body armour.
    Has no labels or id markings on it to maintain element of deniability should operation go to pot and kit is captured / lost.

    Apparently some moderators take themselves very, very seriously, and cannot abide posts such as:
    "If however you offer to moderate you may be a sanctimonious, unfunny pissflap to your heart's content."

    Some comments are allegedly "very very nasty and uncalled for."
