mike y Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 (edited) So I've had this Canadian made MK2 for a couple of years now. Recently I've been informed that the insignia is for the Northumberland Fusiliers, but it's named to George W Foote of the RCASC. Just looking for as many opinions as possible on this beautiful old soldier. Regards Edited September 15, 2016 by mike y Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter monahan Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 (edited) That insignia is very faint! I'm afraid I can't make much of it except that it appears to be red / dark / red. A close-up shot of that bit of the helmet might help others make more useful comments. Edited September 16, 2016 by peter monahan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike y Posted September 16, 2016 Author Share Posted September 16, 2016 The insignia is red/white/red. Can't take photos as of right now, unfortunately Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peter monahan Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 (edited) OK, I see that now. The 1st Cdn Corps used a red/white red rectangle with a gold maple leaf on it but that seems unlikely, to me, to be on a helmet. I'd expect a regimental or corps marking.
