An Army (possibly 2WW?) Trade badge I would like to have ID'd pls, I dont collect Army so do not know their Trade badge designations. 

It is likely Canadian as it was sourced here in Canada.

 

Thanks!

I don’t know for sure, but in traditional Army parlance a solitary letter T would usually refer to Transport.  That said, it is not a badge that I recognise.

Thanks mate,

Pretty certain its Canadian, may try on British & Commonwealth Badge Forum.

Could it be Navy?  Telegraphist, perhaps.  It’s not necessarily Army.

No, its definitely not Navy(RCN), I would know as been collecting RN\RCN for over 50 yrs! 

But I did receive a good response on the Badge Forum - it is Canadian Army ......

 

Thanks!

T trade badges were issued in four grades. T, T wreath, T crown, T wreath and crown. It was generic and either represented a level of skill in a trade, or, for many different trades classified as "equal" in skill level. This changed depending on the time period.
