With the enjoyment of seeing my first blog on Australian Camouflage patterns up and running, I have decided to give a visual account of my Australian Army Unit Patches. There is a plethora of such items and their variants available on the market at the moment and my aim is to show examples I have in my collection. Your advice on issue dates would be gratefully acknowledged. (Some images have been 'sterilised' for security.) Comments and trade offers can be sent to stevod63@hotmail.com.

Series 3 DPDU NCO Rank
These NCO rank patches are in the 3rd pattern DPDU and are now obsolete with the introduction of the 'Land 125' uniform. The 'Land 125' is available in both DPDU and DPCU cuts and utilises external vertical zip pockets, chest epaulette for rank slides (NCO and Officer) and velcro arm patches for Unit patches, ensigns and 'biscuits'. These rank squares have also been seen on the (also) now obsolete brassards.
