Book--"Drop Zone Flashes of the British Airborne Forces"--Parachute Unit Patches

Description: Book--"Drop Zone Flashes of the British Airborne Forces"--Parachute Unit Patches Click images to enlarge Description "Drop Zone Flashes of the British Airborne Forces" is a unique book, dealing specifically with the tactical signs worn on the outer garment by British Airborne troops since late in World War II. It is the ONLY book existent which details these flashes, which are arranged by branch of service and illustrated with careful B&W drawings as well as a number of black & white photographs. In addition, there is a significant essay about the history and development of these colorful patches, and multiple appendices giving the order of battle of the major British Airborne formations at various times from World War II through the Falklands. There's also a four-page B&W photo section. Format is 5-1/2"x8-1/2", 44 pages, paper covers. The author is Charles Edwards (that's me), and I published the book in 1993, ISBN 0-943349-02-8. Used copies occasionally show up on the internet and at shows for outlandish prices (I guess I should be proud of that!)...but I happen to have a good number of signed, unused copies here and am pleased to be able to make them available on eBay at a very reasonable price. I'll sign each copy, but if you'd like your copy/copies personalized let me know how you'd like that done when you pay for the book(s).
