WW2 Canadian 4th Division Canvas Shoulder Title Insignia Single

The WW2 Canadian 4th Division Canvas Shoulder Title Insignia Single is a cloth formation insignia worn by members of the Canadian 4th Infantry Division during the Second World War. This title patch is constructed from canvas and displays the identification marks specific to the 4th Division. It would have been sewn onto the upper sleeve of the battledress jacket as part of the uniform regulations of the period, serving to designate the wearer’s divisional affiliation within the Canadian Army. The 4th Canadian Division was notable for its role in North West Europe, particularly following the Normandy landings in 1944. Formation titles such as this were important for unit identification, especially during active service on the European front. The single-piece insignia is typical of those issued to Commonwealth forces, reflecting wartime production methods and materials. This item would interest those studying Canadian military uniforms or collecting original WW2 insignia.
