Canadian New Brunswick Dragoons Cap Badge

The Canadian New Brunswick Dragoons Cap Badge is a military insignia associated with the New Brunswick Dragoons, a cavalry regiment of the Canadian Militia with origins dating to the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This badge is typically constructed from brass and features a central motif reflecting regimental symbols, often incorporating a crown and a scroll inscribed with the regiment’s name. The design elements may also include maple leaves and crossed sabres, representing Canada and the cavalry tradition. The cap badge would have been worn on the headdress of uniformed members to denote regimental affiliation. The New Brunswick Dragoons served in various forms until their amalgamation and reorganization in the postwar period, which contributed to the formation of modern Canadian armoured units. Items such as this cap badge are valued for their historical connection to Canada’s military heritage and for their representational role within early 20th-century Canadian military attire.
