WW2 Royal Canadian Ordnance Corps Canvas Shoulder Title Insignia Single

The WW2 Royal Canadian Ordnance Corps Canvas Shoulder Title Insignia is an original military uniform patch used during the Second World War. It consists of a single arc-shaped strip of khaki canvas, embroidered with the words “ROYAL CANADIAN ORDNANCE CORPS” in red thread. This type of insignia was worn on the upper arm of the battledress blouse by members of the Royal Canadian Ordnance Corps, a unit responsible for the supply and maintenance of equipment, ammunition, and other materiel to Canadian armed forces. The use of canvas and embroidered lettering reflects wartime production methods and the need for durable, functional uniform components. Measuring approximately 12 cm wide by 3 cm high, these insignia helped identify corps affiliation among Canadian service members. Original examples from the 1939-1945 period are valued for their historical significance and are of interest to collectors of Commonwealth military artifacts.
