About Us The Logistics Branch of the Canadian Armed Forces was formed 1 February 1968, the date that the Canadian Forces Reorganization Act was proclaimed. The Logistics branch is comprised of a broad range of support occupations across all three environments. Logistics officers will obtain skill-sets and be employed in at least one of the following competencies: transportation, supply chain management, financial management, human resource management and food services support. The Logistics Branch NCMs serve in seven separate occupations and include the following: Resource Management Support, Cook, Postal, Supply, Ammunition, Traffic and Mobile Support Equipment. The ultimate goal of the Logistics Branch is to ensure the provision of members who are capable of effectively supporting naval, army and air force operations across the spectrum of conflict. The mission of the Logistics Branch is to provide and maintain a framework which will enable the development of highly motivated and competent logisticians who are operationally focussed.
Their development will be based upon employment which requires a balanced blend of combat service support and core professional competence in logistics. Identity and tradition are extremely important to all military forces and have been fostered for centuries.

Colonel Commandant: Of the centuries old traditions the Branch has chosen to inherit from the British, certainly the most honoured is the appointment of the Colonel Commandant. This honour is conferred upon a former Officer who held the rank of Colonel or above on retirement.
The Colonel Commandant fosters esprit de corps throughout the Branch and advises on matters of significance to the Branch, assists in the administration of Branch Funds and property, and liases with Branch allied logistics formations and units. Branch Adviser: The first Logistics Branch Adviser was appointed in September 1971 to act as a focal point for Branch identity. The appointment is conferred upon a Regular Force officer of Colonel rank and is for an indeterminate period. By 1974, the function expanded to advising the Assistant Deputy Minister (Personnel) at National Defence Headquarters on personnel matters affecting the Branch. This role continues today and is carried out by the incumbent with the assistance of the Branch Secretariat and a number of Branch advisory organizations, representing the various Logistics occupations and environments. Motto: The motto of the Branch is 'SERVITIUM NULLI SECUNDUS'.
