A great (typical British made) SASKLI - Saskatoon Light Infantry - MG embroided glue i.e past back shoulder title
This is a perfect example of a nice British made Canadian S.A.S.K.L.I. (Saskatoon Light Infantry) MG yellow on black embroided shoulder title. The SLI (MG) was mobilized on September 1, 1939. The 1st Battalion of the regiment was sent to Britain on December 8, 1939, as part of the 1st Canadian Division. It was the only infantry unit from northern Saskatchewan to see active service overseas during World War II. On July 13, 1943, the 1st Battalion, SLI (MG) landed in Sicily with the 1st Canadian Division and fought in the Italian campaign until March 1945, when it was transferred to Holland. 1st Battalion, SLI (MG), returned to Canada in November 1945. This is a nice un-issued example.
