WW1 British BEF Kings Own Royal Lancaster Regiment Shoulder Title Insignia Single

This is a single shoulder title insignia from the King’s Own Royal Lancaster Regiment, as worn by members of the British Expeditionary Force (BEF) during the First World War. The insignia is constructed from brass and typically features the wording “KING’S OWN” in raised, cast letters, designed to be attached to the uniform shoulder strap using lugs or loops on the reverse. Shoulder titles were used as a form of regimental identification, enabling rapid recognition of a soldier’s unit. The King’s Own Royal Lancaster Regiment formed part of the regular British Army, with members serving on the Western Front and in other theatres from 1914 to 1918. Items such as this represent standard-issue insignia intended for daily wear by enlisted personnel and provide an authentic example of regimental badges used by the British Army during the early twentieth century. Condition and specific design features may vary based on the period of manufacture and wartime use.
