Original Border War era South African Defence Force Commando Unit Beret with Balkie. Liner intact with signs of wear, made by SAPHI Pretoria dated 1984/85. South Africa's Commando System was responsible for the safeguarding and protection of specific communities (usually rural, but sometimes urban). Commando units were usually referred to as area protection, a civil defense system which involved the whole community. The participants in the Commando System did not have military commitments outside of the areas they served and were responsible for the safety and security of their own communities. Show more
