Scale of Issue

[Bill A]

While doing some research through LAC archives documents, I came across a reference to procurement and the number of patches and titles per soldier in 1942. These 1942 documents indicated 6 pairs of titles and patches per man for 6 months. This was a procurement document, and not a scale of issue.
Does anyone know the actual scale of issue in the regiment or unit that was used to distribute titles and patches? I suspect it would vary depending on the qms and unit, but the number of titles and patches that any one soldier would receive over the period of service appears to be far larger than I originally believed.
Other documents in the same 1942 group gave numbers of patches and titles to be procured for the corps and divisions. For example CPC 1st Canadian army was 50 pairs, while RCASC 1st Canadian Army was 3700 pairs. Plain divisional patches 1st, 2nd and 3rd CID were indented for 19,000 pairs. This would roughly be 2-3 pairs of patches per man. This excludes the divisional corps troops like RCASC, RCCS, RCE, CDC,and CPC.
Final note on the research. This document group covered the period of the Dieppe raid. There is extensive correspondence asking for the IMMEDIATE shipment (by bomber mail) of badges and patches from Canada. The list of badges requested includes the units decimated at Dieppe.
