WW2 Canadian Infantry Corps Canvas Shoulder Title Insignia Single

The WW2 Canadian Infantry Corps Canvas Shoulder Title Insignia Single is an original period-issue cloth formation identifier worn by members of the Canadian Infantry Corps during the Second World War. Constructed from durable khaki or olive drab canvas, this rectangular shoulder title measures approximately 12 cm by 2.5 cm. It features the words “CANADIAN INFANTRY CORPS” embroidered in red thread across the center. The insignia was designed to be sewn onto the upper sleeve of the battledress blouse and served to distinguish the wearer’s corps affiliation within the Canadian Army. Introduced as part of the standardized uniform insignia in the early years of the conflict, this type of shoulder title was widely used by Canadian infantry personnel in both European and domestic postings. The item represents a standard component of World War II Canadian Army uniform insignia and is of interest for its historical association with Canada’s military participation in the conflict.
