Clarification. The red caribou on green rectangle with NEWFOUNDLAND in red is a Canadian army formation patch. Unauthorized it was worn by some Canadians sent to Newfoundland on protective duties as part of W Force during the Second WW. They were made in matched pairs. These were not worn by Newfoundlanders. (Newfoundland did not become a province of Canada until 1949.)
