WW1 Canadian CEF 194th Battalion Shoulder Titles Insignia Pair Pin Back

The WW1 Canadian CEF 194th Battalion Shoulder Titles Insignia Pair features two original metal insignias issued to members of the 194th Battalion, Canadian Expeditionary Force, during the First World War. Each title is designed in a curved format, bearing the unit number “194” alongside the letters “CEF” to designate Canadian military service. The pair is manufactured from brass, typical of wartime insignia, and finished with a pin back attachment for application to the uniform shoulder straps. The 194th Battalion was authorized in Canada in 1916 and recruited primarily in Alberta. Shoulder titles such as these served to identify a soldier’s unit within the broader structure of the Canadian military forces engaged in overseas service. The items reflect standard construction practices of the period and are representative of insignia worn by Canadian troops during World War I. This pair is intended for collectors and researchers of Canadian military history.
