WW2 Canadian 2nd Dragoons Officer’s Commission Certificates and Dog Tags

This lot consists of original Canadian 2nd Dragoons officer’s commission certificates and accompanying dog tags dating to the Second World War era. The commission certificates formally document the officer’s appointment and rank within the 2nd Dragoons, a unit with roots in Canadian cavalry history and involvement in home defence and training duties during the conflict. The documents are printed on period paper with official signatures and regalia, reflecting the style and administrative practices of Canadian military authorities at the time. The included metal dog tags are stamped with the officer’s identification details, conforming to World War II Canadian Army specifications, which typically included oval-shaped tags with the service member’s name, service number, and relevant military details. Together, these items provide direct physical documentation of an individual officer’s service within a notable Canadian Army regiment during the Second World War. This group offers primary source material for those studying military history, Canadian forces, or personal narratives of service.
