Default CF HQ div patch

I found this interesting, a throw back to the WW2 1 Cdn Corps div patch and 1st Canadian Army Headquarters, now in use by the Canadian Army Doctrine and Training Centre (CADTC) and Canadian Army Headquarters in Ottawa.

To say that Lt General Hainse career is impressive is an understatement.

As in a qualification? Eg, Lt-Gen. Hainse is a qualified ranger?

Its either a Ranger Tab or Special Forces tab, Canadians who complete the Ranger course are entitled to wear the Ranger tab. Canadian Soldiers attached to the US USSOCOM are entitled to wear the Special Forces tab.
