Can someone post front and back photos of a WWII OR's cap badge to this unit please?

Hmmm... Thundering silence. How about the green and beige shoulder titles?

Default Here you go...

Clive, sheesh give a person time to get home from work...

Here are ob / rev images of the cap badge and an image of the shoulder title.
Question for Doug N or Greg N. Do either of you have an officer's cap badge to the St Hyacinthe?

Wow Bill, even to be named in the same breath as Doug is an honour, his wonderful collection is much more extensive than mine. I have to say though that I do not have an officers example. Did a special version even exist?

Hey Greg, from what I have seen you have a very good collection. Doug has given us some amazing images of his collection. For those of us who have not acquired extensive officer's accumulations, yours represent an excellent reference.
To the gist of your post, I was also curious if there was an officer's RĂ©giment de St-Hyacinthe.

You've got to love the anonimity of the internet. Where else can such false assumptions be so easily given or gotten?
Flattered as I am, my 'magnificent' collection has only an OSD badge to the St. Hyacinthe. It is one of the cheapie OSD's of the period - nothing more than a bronzed OR's badge. I've never seen a precious metal officer's badge to the regiment, & couldn't say if such a thing exists or not.
