Canadian Forces 2nd Essex and Kent Scottish Shoulder Title Insignia Single

The Canadian Forces 2nd Essex and Kent Scottish Shoulder Title Insignia Single is a uniform insignia representing the 2nd Battalion of the Essex and Kent Scottish, a Primary Reserve infantry regiment of the Canadian Army. The insignia consists of a fabric shoulder title, typically rendered in red or maroon felt or cloth, bearing the regiment’s name in embroidered lettering. Worn on the upper sleeve of the service dress uniform, this type of insignia identified the wearer’s unit affiliation within the Canadian military structure. The Essex and Kent Scottish regiment has a history dating to the amalgamation of two separate regiments, the Essex Scottish and the Kent Regiment, in 1954. This shoulder title would have been used by personnel in the post-amalgamation period, serving both as a functional identifier and as a symbol of regimental pride. Its design reflects the traditions of Canadian Army uniform insignia and is valued by collectors of military antiques and historians.
