WW1 Canadian CEF Army Medical Corps CAMC Shoulder Titles Insignia Pair

The WW1 Canadian CEF Army Medical Corps (CAMC) Shoulder Titles Insignia Pair is an original set of metal insignia issued to personnel serving with the Canadian Army Medical Corps during the First World War. Each insignia consists of two-part brass shoulder titles, featuring the raised letters “C.A.M.C.” which stand for Canadian Army Medical Corps. These titles were typically worn on the upper shoulder straps of the service dress uniform to identify the wearer’s corps affiliation. The Canadian Army Medical Corps played a critical role in providing medical support and care for Canadian Expeditionary Force (CEF) troops on the Western Front and other theaters of the war. The design and construction are representative of Canadian military insignia standards of the 1914-1918 period, with lugs or slider fittings on the reverse for attachment. Items like this pair illustrate the organization and distinct identity of Canadian medical personnel during the First World War.
