WW2 Canadian 8th Princess Louise’s New Brunswick Hussars VIII PLNBH Shoulder Title Insignia Single

This item is a single shoulder title insignia from the Canadian 8th Princess Louise’s New Brunswick Hussars (VIII PLNBH), a cavalry regiment with origins dating back to 1848. The unit served with distinction during the Second World War as an armoured regiment within the First Canadian Army. The insignia typically features the regiment’s abbreviated title, “VIII PLNBH,” rendered in metal and designed to be worn on the shoulder strap of the uniform. Such titles were used to identify the soldier’s unit and foster regimental identity. The shoulder titles were issued during the period of service in WWII and represent an important element of Canadian military dress distinctions of the era. This piece is intended for display or reference by collectors and researchers of Canadian military history, specifically those focused on regimental badges and insignia from the Second World War. The item offered is a single example, not a matched pair.
