Short Description

SADF Koeberg Commando metal pocket flash featuring a red lion rampant with sword. Collectable Western Cape Commando insignia.

Full Description

This item is a metal pocket flash from the South African Defence Force (SADF) era, representing Koeberg Commando, a former light infantry regiment based in the Western Cape.

The badge displays a red lion rampant holding a sword, symbolising strength, defence, and readiness for action. Koeberg Commando traces its origins through earlier units such as Bellville Commando and Durbanville Commando, before adopting the Koeberg name in 1969.

The unit performed:
Area force protection
Internal security duties
Assistance to local police in rural operations

As with all Commando units, Koeberg Commando was officially phased out between 2003 and 2008.

This pocket flash is a desirable collectable for SADF insignia enthusiasts, especially those focusing on Western Cape units.
