A attractive (typical British made) Canadian Midland Regiment shoulder title

This is a great example of a (typical British made) Canadian Midland Regiment shoulder title. On 24 May 1940, the regiment then mobilized The Midland Regiment (Northumberland and Durham), CASF, for active service and on 7 November 1940, the unit was again redesignated as the 1st Battalion, The Midland Regiment (Northumberland and Durham), CASF. The battalion served in Canada in a home defence role as part of the Prince Rupert Defences, 8th Canadian Infantry Division. On 10 January 1945, the battalion embarked for Great Britain. After its arrival in the UK, on 18 January 1945, the battalion was disbanded to provide reinforcements to the Canadian Army in the field.
