This is what I've seen and heard during my 4 years in the Army.
SOG do not have specific badges tapered on their uniforms. Their goal is not to look much different to the average soldier. Sure they have diffrerent platecarriers, helmets and weapons. But their uniforms look the same.

Bild
The cavallery insignias have been seen on operators, and this is not surprising since thay are housed in K3 Karlsborg. Note that all SOG Operators are Officers with the lowest rank of First Sergeant.

Bild
These IR Patches are common in SOG, during operations and low/no-light training.

Just hit me up with a PM if you want some detailed information about some parts of their equipment.

Dont think a operator needs to be a officer anymore, looking at http://rekrytering.forsvarsmakten.se/sv ... soperator/ it seems like "anyone" can apply to the unit.

Andersbe:
If you apply without an officers degree, you do either the ASOU (Anpassad Spec. Off. Utb. 12mån) if eligible. Otherwise you get to do the normal SOU (Spec. Off. Utb. 18mån).

This is decided after the testweeks, the individual interview, etc.

Back on topic:

If we look at this picture we can see that the operators only have their IR reflective patch on the left arm. Nothing on the right arm, and nothing on the helmet.

Altough if the SOG are on a ISAF led mission in Afghanistan for an example, they wear the ISAF Patch on their right arm.

The second one is the heraldic shield of SOG, altough this is their signum, they do not have it on patches etc.
