Red Cross Shoulder Titles
These are four brass shoulder titles, each bearing the emblem of the Red Cross and the inscription “Berk’s”. These titles would have been affixed to the shoulder straps of a uniform, identifying the wearer’s association with the Red Cross during wartime. The brass construction suggests durability for field use, and the clear inscription indicates a specific unit or role within the organisation.
Condition and Collectibility
These shoulder titles exhibit signs of age and wear, consistent with their likely wartime use. The brass shows some patina and minor wear, adding to their authentic character. These titles are of interest to collectors of military insignia, Red Cross memorabilia, and items from the World Wars. They offer a tangible connection to the history of medical support during conflict.
