WW1 British BEF King’s Royal Rifle Corps Shoulder Title Insignia Single

The WW1 British BEF King’s Royal Rifle Corps Shoulder Title Insignia Single is an original military badge issued to members of the King’s Royal Rifle Corps serving with the British Expeditionary Force during the First World War. This metal insignia was typically worn on the shoulder straps of the service dress uniform to denote regimental affiliation. The design features the distinctive lettering associated with the King’s Royal Rifle Corps, and would have been fixed to the uniform using lugs or similar attachments on the reverse. Shoulder titles such as this served both as practical forms of identification and as a symbol of regimental pride within the British Army. The single unit offered here represents one half of a pair, as each soldier would have worn a matching set. Items like this are of interest to collectors and historians for their historical context and association with British military forces during the 1914–1918 conflict.
