Cap badge Royal Canadian Electrical and Mecanical Engineers RCEME Post 1949

"Superimposed with a lightning flash, a horse forcene, gorged with a coronet of four fleur-de-lis, a chain reflexed over its back and standing on a globe inscribed with the Western Hemisphere, superimposed across the lightning flash behind the horse's head, a scroll inscribed "RCEME": the whole surmounted by the Crown."The horse and chain, symbolizing power under control, formed part of the logo of the Institute of Mechanical Engineers, and together with the lightning flash of Electrical Engineering, was intended to mark the close relationship between these branches of engineering. The globe is indicative of the impact of mechanical and electrical engineering on the world generally. On the officer's badge, the lightning flash, scroll and crown were gilt, the horse and globe silver.
