WW2 Royal Canadian Army Medical Corps British Made Shoulder Title Insignia Single

The WW2 Royal Canadian Army Medical Corps British Made Shoulder Title Insignia Single is an original period item used by Canadian military medical personnel during the Second World War. This embroidered shoulder title features “Royal Canadian Army Medical Corps” in yellow thread on a dark blue wool backing, reflecting the official colors of the corps. Manufactured in the United Kingdom, these titles were commonly issued to Canadian soldiers as part of their service dress while stationed overseas. The insignia was typically sewn onto the upper sleeve of the uniform to designate corps affiliation. The British-made construction distinguishes this insignia from Canadian-made variants, often through differences in materials and stitching techniques. Shoulder titles such as this played a functional role in wartime identification, making clear the wearer’s rank, branch, or specialty. This single example represents standard issue for medical personnel serving with Canadian forces, providing historical context to uniform regulations and military organization during World War II.
