Where did the CEF badge designs come from?
Please forgive me if this has been asked before, and if so feel free to link me to the information, I may not be searching properly. I have noticed, while hunting down the 133rd CEF badges that there is quite a variety of badge designs and was curious as to what were the regulations and the methods that these units used to come up with there insignia? Most of the Canadian CEF is Maple Leaf based, but not all, and in some the Maple Leaf is less accentuated. They are all great works of art I think, so I just started wondering about the parameters used to come up with each specific units design.
Thank You,
Semper Fi, Rob
