Canadian Forces Medical Service
In 2004 the Canadian Forces Medical Service (CFMS) of the Canadian Forces underwent a reorganization. The army reserve units, which had formerly been titled medical companies (Med Coy), were renamed field ambulances (Fd Amb) to match the titles of the regular units. They had been designated as Field Ambulances previously, between 1906 and 1954. In addition, all regular and reserve army units were removed from the brigades and placed in a new formation under the Canadian Forces Health Services Group, which is not part of the army:
