Canadian Forces OD Green Armband Brassard RCA With Mobile Command Patch

The Canadian Forces OD Green Armband Brassard RCA with Mobile Command Patch is a military accessory used by personnel of the Royal Canadian Artillery (RCA) within the Canadian Forces. This item consists of an olive drab (OD) green cloth armband, designed to be worn on the upper arm over a uniform sleeve. The brassard features a securely affixed Mobile Command patch, signifying the individual’s association with the Mobile Command formation. These armbands are typically used for quick identification during exercises, parades, or while on duty, and can denote authority or specific roles within a unit. The armband utilizes a simple fastening system, often Velcro or snap buttons, allowing for easy attachment and removal. The Mobile Command patch reflects the era when Canada’s Army field forces were organized under this command, primarily during the latter half of the 20th century. This item represents a functional component of Canadian military uniform insignia from that period.
