WW2 Canadian Tropical Corporal Rank Insignia Single

The WW2 Canadian Tropical Corporal Rank Insignia Single is an original example of the insignia used by Canadian Army personnel serving in tropical or warmer climates during the Second World War. This insignia features two chevrons, signifying the rank of Corporal, and is typically constructed from lightweight khaki or tan fabric suitable for use with tropical uniforms. The insignia was sewn onto the upper sleeve of the service dress to denote the wearer’s rank. Canadian troops deployed to the Mediterranean, Southeast Asia, and other warm regions frequently wore such tropical variations, which differed in fabric and color from standard wool insignia intended for temperate climates. This rank badge would have been a standard issue item for non-commissioned officers holding the rank of Corporal within Canadian Army units overseas. The single piece offered is intended for collectors or researchers interested in military dress, insignia, or the specific field uniforms of Canadian forces during World War II.
