Badges with the 22 numeral imposed were worn by the Bn, but not with the white metal overlay. The wartime badges with 22 were darkened bronze finish, brown enamel finish or pickled finish. The white metal overlay type was not adopted until the R 22e R became a regiment of the permanent forces of Canada shortly after the war.

I did see a cap badge with the silver overlay maker marked Hemsley. Would that be immediately after WW1? Any idea when Hemsley stopped making badges? I have only ever seen CEF badges by Hemsley.

Hemsley were in business for sometime after the First WW. I have correspondence from an old time collector requesting badges from them in the 1920's.
