When the Canadian Armoured Corps were granted the Royal honour, the badges and titles had to be changed. That coincided with the re-examination of the dress and insignia post war. In 1947 new dress regs were promulgated, and new badges were considered, finally, for the RCAC. They wished to be affiliated with the Royal Armoured Corps and when granted permission, they used a design similar to the RAC badge, with the modifications to make it uniquely Canadian.
