WW1 British BEF Royal Artillery Shoulder Title Insignia Single

The WW1 British BEF Royal Artillery Shoulder Title Insignia Single is an original military badge issued to members of the British Expeditionary Force during the First World War. This metal shoulder title features the letters “R.A.” for Royal Artillery, typically affixed to the upper sleeve of the service dress uniform. The design is consistent with British Army practices of the period, using metal construction for durability in field conditions. These insignia served both as a unit identifier and as a means of fostering regimental pride among troops. The style and manufacturing techniques reflect those used from 1914 to 1918, with loop fittings on the reverse allowing for attachment to the uniform. Original examples such as this are valued for their historical significance, representing the units that played a key role in artillery operations throughout the Great War. This item is sold as a single shoulder title, not a pair.
