WW2 Royal Canadian Artillery RCA Slip-Ons Insignia Pair

The WW2 Royal Canadian Artillery (RCA) Slip-Ons Insignia Pair consists of two matching shoulder slip-on insignia used by the Royal Canadian Artillery during the Second World War. Each slip-on is constructed from olive-drab material, with the letters “RCA” embroidered or printed in colored thread, denoting the wearer’s affiliation with the artillery branch. Slip-ons were designed to be worn on the shoulder straps of battle dress blouses, providing unit identification in the field. The use of slip-on insignia offered a practical solution for rapid attachment and removal, a useful feature during wartime operations and for laundering uniforms. The Royal Canadian Artillery was a key component of the Canadian Army, providing fire support on multiple fronts between 1939 and 1945. Original period examples of RCA slip-ons are valued by collectors and historians for their role in representing the organizational structure and identity of Canadian forces during World War II.
