New Canadian Army Command Badge

[JamesAA]

One of the new Canadian Army Command badges just came up for auction on ebay:

It looks like a legit Carat Med makers mark. However, I have not heard that these are being issued yet. The seller appears to be from China.

What do you think? Is it real, fake, diverted from the production line?

Interesting auction. You have raised some good questions about the badge. Does anyone have an example for comparison?

I would say its a knock off, if you look at the rest of his items, including Disney crap.

I talked to someone at the Army Headquarters today and he did not believe the new command badges are being issued yet, he certainly has not been issued one.

I see that the ebay badge has been sold.

BTW is it was also mentioned to me that the Army HQ staff will be issued a diamond sleeve patch (colours unknown) in lieu of divisional patches.

Hello Jim, The HQ will apparently wear a formation sign similar to First Cdn Army in the SWW. The training establishments are to supposedly wear a patch similar to 1 Cdn Corps.
