WW1 Canadian CEF Legion Of Frontiersmen Veterans Enamel Button Hole Badge

The WW1 Canadian CEF Legion of Frontiersmen Veterans Enamel Button Hole Badge is an original piece associated with the Canadian Expeditionary Force and the Legion of Frontiersmen during the First World War. The badge is constructed in a buttonhole style, designed for easy attachment to a lapel or uniform. It features an enameled front, typically displaying the insignia of the Legion of Frontiersmen, often with symbolic imagery and text associated with the unit’s service and affiliation to the Canadian forces. The enamel work illustrates both the status of the wearer as a veteran and their connection to this paramilitary organization, which began in the early 20th century and supported imperial and national defense efforts. This badge relates to a broader tradition of veteran commemorative insignia issued after hostilities, serving as both a mark of membership and recognition of service within the unique context of Canadian contributions to the First World War.
