    Here's a couple of high school cadet titles from the 1960's (my guess).

    I wore just the Essex and Kent Scottish regular shoulder title at Kennedy in the early 60's with the large red maple leaf RCAC patch below and small army cadet yellow letter flash below that. I also had the crossed rifles patch, on the opposite sleeve I believe.

    Yes, most wore the affiliated Regiment's title. I have a photo of cadets from Lowe wearing the Windsor Regiment title, circa late 1950's, early 1960's.

    Hi Sarge, These cadet titles started in the 1940's and were in use through the 60's at least. They are hard to find. Nice examples.

    Thanks. I started at Forster in 1977 but the cadets were long gone before that.
