WW1 Canadian CEF Machine Gun Corps Collar Insignia Single

The WW1 Canadian CEF Machine Gun Corps Collar Insignia Single is an original military artifact dating from the First World War. Issued to members of the Machine Gun Corps within the Canadian Expeditionary Force (CEF), this insignia was designed for wear on the uniform collar to denote unit affiliation. The piece is typically constructed of brass and features the crossed Vickers machine guns, a distinct emblem associated with machine gun units of the era. Above the guns, the letters “MGC” (Machine Gun Corps) are often incorporated as part of the design. Collar badges such as this played an important role in unit identification and organizational structure during military operations. This insignia reflects the formation and deployment of specialized machine gun units by the CEF during the global conflict from 1914 to 1918, highlighting the significance of automatic firepower in WW1. The single badge offered represents an individual collar piece rather than a matched pair.
