I did a check of some photographs of the Victoria Rifles in the Notman Collection,taken in 1939 and even if the pics are not that great, it seems, that the ORs were wearing VRC in black block letters on the shoulder straps.....at the same period the officers were wearing silver cap and collar badges, the shoulder titles could not be clearly seen.......
Sorry I couldn't bee more helpful but, the VRC is one of Montreal-based unit that when they were disbanded,in 1964, their material and documents and photos were sent to a Montreal museum and were never seen again ......
