WW2 Canadian New Brunswick Rangers British Made Shoulder Title Insignia Single Starch Back

This is a single World War II-era shoulder title insignia for the Canadian New Brunswick Rangers regiment. Manufactured in Britain, this example features the regiment’s designation in embroidered lettering on a fabric backing. As a British-made insignia, it reflects the patterns commonly supplied to Canadian forces deployed overseas during the conflict. The reverse of the insignia is finished with a starch back, typical of wartime production methods intended to provide durability and maintain the patch’s shape. The New Brunswick Rangers were a Canadian Army regiment with a history dating back to the early 20th century, and during the Second World War, they contributed both in home defense and overseas operations. Shoulder titles such as this one were worn on the upper sleeves of battle dress uniforms to identify unit affiliation. This insignia is presented as a single patch rather than a pair, and exhibits the construction characteristics associated with authentic wartime manufacture.
