It is indeed, 10 Para, mate of mine served in 1 Para , had same badge just with a 'I'

And I probably wouldn't put it on your car unless you or one of yours wore a maroon lid at some point. Some have been known to take a dim view of that :D

In case any readers are wondering, that 'mush' on top of the parachute is a lion on a crown.
Everyone has the right to reach the level of their own incompetence.
