Default Light AA Artillery title

Is this British or possibly Canadian?

I posted in another thread relating to Royal Canadian School of Artillery (Anti-Aircraft) , any possibility ?

""The 1st Light Anti-Aircraft Regiment RCA was formed in October 1953. It consisted of a HQ and the 2nd and 3rd LAA Batteries, and it was located with the RCSA (Anti-Aircraft) at Picton, Ontario. "

Looks like you could be right and it is indeed Canadian.

There is no record or notation of any such title in the documentation. I don't think it is a RCA title. 1 LAA had unique regimental titles reading 1 LAA.
