Default Canadian General List Badge

Question regarding the Canadian General List Badge:
Was this badge given to all members who enlisted in the CEF?

Any information about the history of this badge or reference links would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
Bonnie

Hi Bonnie, Are you speaking about the CEF type GS badge? There is another GS badge that was approved after the SWW.
There are threads on the Forum dealing with the CEF period badge. http://www.britishbadgeforum.com/for...ral+List+Badge
There are other threads, try the search function on the navigation bar.

Hi Bill, yes I was referring to the CEF GS Badge. Thanks for the recommendations and link. Looks like there were quite a few renditions produced by different manufacturers way back then. My search for knowledge continues...

Much appreciated!
