Bill, I did not get a closeup of the shoulder badge but it appears to be white embroidery on blue to me.

Lorne Rifles Insignia display:



There were several other insignia displays of various Canadian Militia units in a large glass case, but this is the only shot I was able to take.

That's it mates, if I get back to the Museum in future I will get some more shots & add,

Thanks for viewing & Best Wishes to all for 2017!
Bryan

There were a bunch of embroidered RCCS formation patches that were made up either by or for the museum.

AGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHH. Phil, you are a perpetual source of gloomy light. And I suspect that the Museum made far more than they needed...

Chris Bisaillion had them made up. As I understand it, there was no intent to deceive.

Phil, Understood about the intent. That suggests that there were only enough badges made for the representations that the Museum needed?

Thank you for posting the images. I've been at CFB Kingston a fair bit over the last couple years but never entered the museum. I will now for sure!

Cheers
