The ‘Punisher’ style patch, which is worn on plate carriers and helmets, was presented to members of G Squadron upon achieving their first kill during theatre but MOD inspectors became afraid that the skull on it might resemble that of the Nazi SS divisions and it has been banned from use by the UK Government.
