A Canadian Army sleeve insignia assembly consisting of three sewn patches mounted on a section of olive-green uniform fabric. The upper arc patch, embroidered in white on a blue background, reads “ROYAL CANADIAN SIGNALS.” Below it is a red shield patch featuring a yellow maple leaf surrounded by a white laurel wreath with “CANADA” embroidered in yellow at the top.
At the base is a chevron patch made of brown twill with three white chevrons and the Mercury figure emblem (the Roman messenger god, symbol of communications) at its center. The patches are neatly arranged in a standardized layout used on the sleeves of uniforms belonging to members of the Royal Canadian Corps of Signals, responsible for military communications and coordination.
