WW2 Canadian Sherbrooke Regiment Cap Badge

The WW2 Canadian Sherbrooke Regiment Cap Badge is a period military insignia worn by members of the Sherbrooke Regiment, an armoured unit of the Canadian Army. Established prior to the Second World War, the Sherbrooke Regiment was mobilized for active service during WWII and played a significant role as part of the Canadian Armoured Corps. The cap badge typically features a central beaver motif—a recognized symbol of Canada—resting on a scroll inscribed with the regiment’s name. Additional elements often include a crown and wreath, denoting service to the Commonwealth and regimental pride. Constructed primarily from brass during the wartime period, the badge was designed to be worn on the regimental headdress. It serves as a representation of unit identity and esprit de corps. The badge is of interest to collectors and historians for its association with Canadian military heritage and the broader context of World War II service.
