A matched set of insignia from the South West Africa Tactical Force (SWATF), featuring an oxidised silver cap badge and two flanking collar badges. The cap badge depicts a detailed Oryx (Gemsbok) head with vertical horns and a scroll below bearing the unit motto "PERGAMUS" (Latin for "We Advance"), which was unique to SWATF operational and tactical units. The collar badges consist of silvered laurel spray motifs, denoting military merit and leadership. These were typically worn on dress uniforms by field-grade officers and warrant officers serving in SWATF command or mobile tactical units.
