WW2 British Rifle Brigade RB Slip-On Insignia Single

The WW2 British Rifle Brigade RB Slip-On Insignia Single is an original cloth shoulder title issued to members of the Rifle Brigade during the Second World War. This insignia features the letters “RB” embroidered in light thread on a dark backing, designed to be worn on the shoulder straps of the service dress or battledress uniform. The slip-on format allowed for easy attachment and removal, facilitating the clear identification of unit affiliation in the field. The Rifle Brigade, also known as the Prince Consort’s Own, was a distinguished infantry regiment within the British Army, recognized for its role in multiple major campaigns throughout the war. Issued in single units, these insignia pieces were commonly worn in pairs. Original wartime examples, such as this, provide insight into British uniform practices and regimental distinctions during the 1939–1945 conflict. Condition and signs of period use may vary, consistent with service-worn military insignia.
