WW2 The Royal Canadian Regiment Canvas Shoulder Title Insignia Single

The WW2 The Royal Canadian Regiment Canvas Shoulder Title Insignia Single is an original cloth formation badge worn by members of The Royal Canadian Regiment during the Second World War. This single shoulder title is constructed from khaki canvas with the unit designation “THE ROYAL CANADIAN REGIMENT” embroidered in red thread. Introduced as part of Canadian military uniform regulations, such insignia were stitched above the upper sleeve on the battledress to denote regimental affiliation. The use of canvas and red embroidery is typical of the wartime period, as it provided durability and easy identification in the field. The Royal Canadian Regiment is one of Canada’s oldest and most distinguished infantry units, with its members serving in various theatres during WW2. Original shoulder titles from this era are valued for their historical authenticity and significance in the context of Canadian military history. The item consists of one single insignia.
