In need of an expert on the Van Doos. What is the significance of the colours of the R22eR shoulder title?

Bill, this is what I found. Blue, is for the blue patch of the 2nd Division worn during the first war. Gold, is for the embroidered "C" worn by the officers on the 2nd Div. patch. Red, is for the round red circle worn with the 2nd Div. patch,identifying the 22nd Bn.of the 5th Brigade of the 2nd Canadian Division.
All these informations from the R22R website.Needs a little searching though. Jo http://www.r22er.com/ go to Patrimoine et Protocole, and then "Etandards et fanions"
