That's an interesting pic of the Army - style BD. Aircrew normally wore the RAF bluegrey BD, (or darker blue for RAAF) but, those 'touring' the ground battlefields, or acting as FAC's for example, often utilised Army BD, so as not to stand out, or be mistaken for German troops.
 
Document on Brish Military terminology

starting in the 90's to collect all these. Some came from Veterans. Getting RAF pieces is getting harder and harder.
