WW2 Canadian PT Instructor Trade Badge Single

The WW2 Canadian PT (Physical Training) Instructor Trade Badge was worn by Canadian Army personnel qualified to instruct physical training during the Second World War. This cloth badge is embroidered in white thread on a dark blue wool backing, typically displaying the letters “PT” within a laurel wreath, denoting the instructor’s specialization. The badge was worn on the lower sleeve of the service dress or battle dress by those officially designated as physical training instructors. Its purpose was to identify individuals responsible for the physical fitness and conditioning of troops, a critical component of military readiness during the conflict. The design and materials are consistent with Canadian military insignia of the period, reflecting standard manufacturing techniques of wartime production. This example is a single badge, suitable for collectors or historical reference. The badge represents an aspect of the Canadian Army’s focus on training and personnel development during World War II.
