I'm not Redeye but I'll answer this. It is jargon for civilian dress. I'm sure there is an interesting story behind it.

Search And Rescue technician...........

The Hastings and Prince Edward Regiment cadets wear the red beret because the unit used to. The reserve unit no longer wears it because when the army reorganized the MP's claimed the red beret. The cadets carry on our old tradition along with the veterans.

I believe the Hastings and Prince Edward Regiment was granted
the right to wear the red beret LONG before (ww2 or 1)??? and
COULD wear it but don't. 

I believe their cadet corp however does continue the tradition
for the unit. 

  I was a cadet with a Hastings and Prince Edward Regiment cadet corps and yes we were issued red berets.  The actual regiment wears a green beret with red felt behind the cap badge.

Really?  Highly unlikely since orange is more visable than blue.  (but who knows)

On that note.. I forbid it since the Chaplain's are changing from purple to blue.  ;D

That was from the mouth of a SAR tech...  The reason being that orange in the dark looks like Brown (hard to see).  Baby blue, you can see it even at night.

Do they wear their berets during SAR operations?

 

[SupersonicMax]

No but they wear their ORANGE flight suit and drop ORANGE kit out of the plane (ok I know it's a bit far but...)

So are you saying that they soon will be dropping baby blue kit out of a plane dressed in baby blue flight suits?
