Royal Canadian Army Service Corps (RCASC)
Formed on November 1st, 1901, the RCASC was the combatant corps of the Canadian Army that provided combat supplies, transportation, food service and clerical support in peace, during the First World War, the Second World War, the Korean War and United Nations Operations.  Throughout its history, members of the RCASC performed with dedication, distinction, devotion and personal pride.  They were a vital part of every army operation.  Succeeding generations salute them.   The RCASC is a proud predecessor of the Canadian Forces Logistics Branch.
"Victory is the beautiful bright coloured flower.  Transport is the stem without which it would never have blossomed"  Winston Churchill
