A Canadian Army sleeve insignia assembly mounted on a section of olive-green uniform fabric. The upper arc patch bears the inscription “ROYAL CANADIAN SIGNALS” embroidered in white on blue. Below it is a United Nations patch, circular and light blue, with the UN emblem of a world map encircled by olive branches.
At the base is a three-chevron corporal rank badge in brown and beige, featuring the Mercury emblem — the Roman messenger god — symbolizing communication and swiftness. The combination of patches identifies the wearer as a corporal in the Royal Canadian Corps of Signals serving under United Nations command, likely during postwar peacekeeping operations such as in Korea or Cyprus.
