Cap Badge - Canadian Army Cyclist Corps

Cap Badge - Canadian Army Cyclist Corps Each division, 1 through 5 had a Cyclists Company. In 1916, the four Canadian Corps Cyclist Companies were removed from the divisional establishment and combined to form a Canadian Corps Cyclist Battalion. They served under Corps command until the end of hostilities in 1918. (D. Love, A Call to Arms, p 151-152.) It is not clear which badges the composite battalion wore, and perhaps they retained and wore their original divisional badge. The 1920 date is the official "paper" demobilization for the unit, and often the effective de-mobilization had taken place much earlier.
