Many Thanks

It belongs to 1st Bn PARA COMMANDO used in the '60s and '70s. These were the guys in the Congo in '64.
That said, it's a nice and rare piece and has all the relevent insignia.
I'm not sure but I think the dagger patch means that the wearer has been transfered from 2 COMMANDO..
All you need now is the beret (marroon) and trousers (side pocket)!
