An overlooked error. Thanks to cavalryman for pointing out that Mazeas has mis-labelled C 56. It should be correctly labelled the Canadian Armoured Corps. The GO date is correct for the CAC.

A second pattern of the New Brunswick Rangers cap badge exists. The variety reads "NEW BRUNSWICK RANGERS" on the scroll, no "THE". To assist in identification, it will be listed as M111a.

The badge listed at VA 4 should read Women's Ambulance Corps, BCAA. Probably the badge at VA 5 is also a Women's Ambulance Corps as well.

Thanks cdndragoon. So the cypher would be the VRI one pre 1900. I wonder if the VRI cyphers that are attributed to the RCR were also really RCD?

Mazeas M5, Governor General's Foot Guards has the wrong GO cited. It should read GO 108 / 1932. The pre-1914 badge was worn until the new design was authorized and procured.
