WW2 Canadian Camerons Highlanders Canada Battledress Slip-Ons Insignia Pair

This pair of WW2 Canadian Camerons Highlanders Canada battledress slip-on insignia represents a standard form of shoulder identification used during the Second World War. Manufactured for wear with the Canadian Army’s battledress blouse, these slip-ons are constructed from khaki wool fabric, featuring embroidered “CAMERONS” and “CANADA” titles in red thread on each piece. Designed to slide onto the epaulettes of the uniform, they were intended for personnel serving with the Queen’s Own Cameron Highlanders of Canada, a distinguished infantry regiment within the Canadian Army. The slip-ons identified the wearer’s regiment and national origin, aiding in unit recognition both within the Canadian forces and among their Commonwealth allies. The use of slip-on titles was standard across many Canadian units during the conflict, with each regiment’s insignia individualized by unique color schemes and wording. This insignia pair reflects the patterns and materials typically used in the 1940s Canadian Army issue.
