Cap Badges

Canadian Armed Forces cap badges are distinctive symbols that are modern Canadian heraldry. Metal and embroidered cap badges identify a military unit, build pride, and establish continuity – all necessary for the success of command.

Cap badges, or hat badges, are perhaps the most prominent and recognizable aspect of the military uniform. They represent a soldier's unit and rank, while completing the headdress. William Scully Ltd. is one of the most prolific Canadian badge manufacturers of the last 150 years.
