The Canadian Forestry Corps (French: Corps forestier canadien) was an administrative corps of the Canadian Army with its own cap badge and other insignia and traditions.
The Canadian Forestry Corps was created 14 November 1916. The badge of the Canadian Forestry Corps consists of a circle, with a beaver on top, superimposed on a pair of crossed axes, with the text "Canadian Forestry Corps" around the edge. At the centre of the circle is a maple leaf with the Imperial State Crown. Their nickname was the "Sawdust Fusiliers".
The Canadian Forestry Corps was disbanded in 1920. It was reformed in 1940 then disbanded again in 1945.
