I just noticed that the SAS end in 1963 not 1980. Any reason for this? Or is it just an oversight?

They exist. They are just called "Combat Commando" after 1963. They have all the same ratings as the earlier SAS. I do not recall why it was done this way. The unit was virtually broken up at the end of 1963 but it was eventually reformed. However, as I said the Combat Commando have the same ratings so this will be an amalgamation of various commando type units that include the RSAS
