WW1 Royal Canadian Regiment Shoulder Title Insignia Single

The item offered is a single World War I Royal Canadian Regiment (RCR) shoulder title insignia. This brass insignia was worn by members of the Royal Canadian Regiment on their uniforms during the First World War, serving as an identifier of regimental affiliation. The title typically features a curved, flat-faced design with the initials “RCR” displayed prominently in raised, stylized lettering. Two lugs on the reverse were used to attach the insignia securely to the uniform shoulder strap. The Royal Canadian Regiment, one of the oldest regular infantry regiments in Canada, participated in several significant battles during WWI as part of the Canadian Expeditionary Force. Shoulder titles such as this were standard-issue items, helping to distinguish units within the broader military structure. This single shoulder title provides an example of the regimental insignia used by RCR members during the conflict and reflects the typical period construction and design features.
