During World War II, the silhouetted image of Bellerophon the warrior, mounted on the winged Pegasus, was adopted by the United Kingdom&#x27;s&#xD;&#xA; newly-raised parachute troops in 1941 as their upper sleeve insignia. &#xD;&#xA;The image clearly symbolized a warrior arriving at a battle by air, the &#xD;&#xA;same tactics used by paratroopers.&#xD;&#xA; The square upper-sleeve insignia comprised Bellerophon/Pegasus in light&#xD;&#xA; blue on a maroon background. The insignia was designed by famous &#xD;&#xA;English novelist Daphne du Maurier, who was married to the commander of the 1st Airborne Division (and later the expanded British Airborne Forces), General Frederick "Boy" Browning.&#xD;&#xA; The maroon background on the insignia was later used again by the &#xD;&#xA;Airborne Forces when they adopted the famous maroon beret in Summer &#xD;&#xA;1942. The beret was the origin of the German nickname for British &#xD;&#xA;airborne troops, The Red Devils. Today&#x27;s Parachute Regiment carries on the maroon beret tradition.
