WW1 Canadian CEF Engineers Collar Insignia Single

This is a single collar insignia from the Canadian Expeditionary Force (CEF) Engineers, dating from the First World War period (1914–1918). The insignia would have been worn on the collar of the service dress by members of the CEF Engineers, a unit responsible for key engineering tasks such as constructing defenses, bridges, and other military infrastructure. Typically constructed of brass or a similar metal, the insignia features the distinctive symbols and motto associated with the Canadian Engineers of the era. The reverse side would generally display attachment lugs or a slider for securing it to the uniform. Such insignia served to identify the branch of service and the specialised role of its wearer within the Canadian military hierarchy. This artifact represents a tangible connection to the Canadian military’s contributions during WWI and offers insight into the uniform and organizational structure of the period.
