First Corps formation sign. 12th Manitoba Dragoons were 2nd Corps' recce.
Now, I have seen pictures of staff officers wearing formation signs that at first glance would appear incorrect because they were still badged to their parent regiment, but were posted to a formation that their parent regiment was not part of.

Phil, I would agree, except the formation patch is 1 Canadian Armoured Brigade.
