WW2 Canadian RCN Navy CANADA Shoulder Titles Insignia Pair Uncut

This item consists of a matched, uncut pair of WW2-era Canadian Royal Canadian Navy (RCN) shoulder titles. Each title features the word “CANADA” in white embroidered capital letters on a navy blue wool backing, consistent with wartime manufacturing standards. The uncut format indicates that the two titles remain joined together as issued, prior to being separated for application to uniform sleeves. These insignia were worn by RCN personnel to denote Canadian service and were typically sewn onto the upper sleeves of naval uniforms. The design and materials are representative of period production, with variations in backing and font reflecting different wartime suppliers. Such insignia formed part of the standard identification and distinction practices used by Commonwealth forces during the Second World War, helping to differentiate service members of various national origins. This pair provides a tangible example of the insignia issued and worn by Canadian Navy personnel during the conflict.
