Hello,
This beret is for the Royal Canadian Horse Artillery (all regular force Regiments are titled "horse").Officers and Warrant Officers wear the bullion badge. This is one of the best berets. The current ones are rubbish. Happy New Year! Clay

Thank you for your replies. I had the opportunity to buy it for US$ 10, so, thanks to your identification, I just did it.
Happy new year Laurent

The badge does not look like the RCA one, unless it is an old version the Field Gun should be on green grass. The Royal Regiment of Artillery Officers badge stands on gold wire.

Laurent,
Standing orders for the Royal Regiment of Canadian Artillery: 7. Small Cap Badge. The Royal Regiment of Canadian Artillery cap badge is a field gun surmounted by a scroll inscribed "UBIQUE"; below the gun, a scroll inscribed with the motto "QUO FAS ET GLORIA DUCUNT"; the whole surmounted by a replica of St. Edward's Crown. a. An embroidered Artillery badge, 33.5mm high and 43.0mm wide (Insignia Embroidered Officers RCA), will be worn by qualified Commissioned Officers and Chief Warrant Officers on CF authorized berets; and b. NCM’s wear a anodized or highly polished brass Artillery badge 33.5mm high and 43.0mm wide (Insignia Headdress RCA Small, NSN 8455-21-103-2798 ) on CF authorized berets. Beret is from the 1980's as shown in the lining. The above quote is from 2011 pdf. http://www.vancouvergunners.ca/uploa...1_aug_2011.pdf Last edited by Flatdog; 04-01-18 at 06:34 AM.
