Royal Canadian Horse Artillery RCHA Shoulder Titles Insignia Pair

The Royal Canadian Horse Artillery (RCHA) Shoulder Titles Insignia Pair is a set of metal badges historically worn on the upper uniform sleeves of RCHA personnel. Each insignia typically features the detailed initials “RCHA,” representing the regiment’s name. These shoulder titles were used to identify members of the Royal Canadian Horse Artillery, a key regular force artillery unit within the Canadian Army. Introduced in the early 20th century, such insignia followed standardized military practices for distinguishing regimental affiliation and facilitating unit recognition. The pair format ensures matching insignia for both shoulders as per dress regulations. Depending on the period, these badges were manufactured from brass or other metals, often with a lug mounting system for secure attachment to the uniform. The RCHA has a longstanding history of service dating back to its formation in 1871 and has played significant roles in both world wars and modern Canadian military operations.
