The WW2 Canadian The Cap Breton Highlanders Canvas Shoulder Title Insignia is an original cloth badge issued to members of The Cape Breton Highlanders during the Second World War. The insignia is constructed from khaki or olive drab canvas, featuring red embroidered text displaying the unit’s name in uppercase letters. Designed to be worn on the upper sleeve of the battledress uniform, these shoulder titles served both to identify the wearer’s regiment and to promote unit cohesion. The Cape Breton Highlanders were a Primary Reserve infantry regiment of the Canadian Army, mobilized for active service during the war and deployed in the Italian Campaign and Northwest Europe. The badge measures approximately 12 cm by 2.5 cm, with the text arched to conform to standard Commonwealth patterns of the era. Such insignia are typical of period construction, employing durable materials suitable for field conditions and daily wear on combat attire.
