WW1 Canada - Canadian Machine Gun Section (MGS) Bronze Shoulder Title

Often believed to be 'School' but incorrect and stands for "Section". Worn circa 1916 - 1917. Each CEF Battalion initially had its own Lewis Gun section prior to the creation of the Canadian Machine Gun Service and wore the MGS title. See also my item 65555.
