WW2 Canadian Essex Scottish Canada Shoulder Title Insignia Single (1)

This item is a single World War II Canadian military shoulder title insignia for the Essex Scottish Regiment. The insignia is constructed from red wool with white embroidered lettering that reads “ESSEX SCOTTISH CANADA.” Designed to be sewn onto the upper sleeve of the battle dress uniform, this shoulder title was used to identify the wearer’s regiment and national affiliation. The Essex Scottish Regiment was an infantry regiment of the Canadian Army, based in Windsor, Ontario, and served as part of the 2nd Canadian Infantry Division during the Second World War. Units such as this played a significant role in key campaigns, including the Dieppe Raid in 1942 and operations in North-West Europe from 1944 to 1945. The construction and materials reflect typical wartime Canadian insignia production methods, with emphasis on visibility and durability for field use. This piece represents an authentic element of Canadian Army insignia from the period.
