History
During both World Wars, the Canadian Forces Postal Service mobilized many Post Office employees. The Canadian Forces Postal Service provided "mail from home" for the Canadian Forces by forwarding mail to restricted military zones in Canada and Europe, as well as other areas where Canadians serve in United Nations peacekeeping operations.
On January 1, 2001, the branch was integrated into the Logistics Branch.
