Royal Canadian Sea Cadet Corps R.C.S.C.C. Harwood Cap Tally Full Length

The Royal Canadian Sea Cadet Corps R.C.S.C.C. Harwood Cap Tally Full Length is a traditional piece of military headgear insignia associated with the Royal Canadian Sea Cadets. This item consists of a black ribbon, known as a cap tally, featuring gold or yellow woven lettering with the designation “R.C.S.C.C. HARWOOD” clearly displayed. Such tallies were worn on the caps of cadet uniforms as a means of identification and affiliation with a specific corps. The full-length format indicates the ribbon has not been cut or previously affixed, preserving its original size for display or collection purposes. Cap tallies like this example were standard issue in Canadian Sea Cadet units throughout the 20th century, reflecting naval traditions and practices inherited from the Royal Navy. This insignia is of particular interest to collectors of Canadian naval, cadet, or military memorabilia, and serves as a reference point for the uniforms and organization of Canadian youth maritime programs.
