Title 199th Irish Rangers of Canada cap badge
Nationality Canadian
Period c 1916
Sold

This unit was also known as the Duchess of Connaught's Own Irish Rangers. Raised in 1916 and recruited in Montreal and district, in 1917 the 199th was absorbed into the 23rd Reserve Battalion.

Its condition is excellent. It would originally have been a blackened badge, but now the highlights have been polished.

I received the silver Verdienstkreuz this morning. Your swiftness and dedication was very much appreciated and, though the envelope arrived with a Post Office sticker saying it had been found open or damaged, the cross was unharmed and looks beautiful. Thanks for your time.
