A superb (Calico Printers made) 1st Canadian Corps (HeadQuarters & Miscellaneous) shoulder formation patch

This is a perfect example of a (British made with paper backing) 1st Canadian Corps shoulder formation patch. As the Canadian forces in England continued to grow, a First Canadian Army was created in 1942 to oversee the growing list of formations, which came to include 5 divisions and 2 independent armoured brigades. When a 2nd Canadian Corps was created in early 1943, the Canadian Corps was redesignated 1st Canadian Corps. This example is in a perfect issued condition.
