About: Service battalion

An Entity of Type: organisation, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

A service battalion (Svc Bn; French: bataillon des services or bon svc) is a unit of the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) that provides combat service support to a brigade group and its elements. It is able to fight in a defensive role as well as provide the vital logistical support to sustain the operations of the other units within the brigade group. This is different to the "(service) battalion" designation in use in the British Army in 1914–1915 onwards. Such battalions were for war service only, having a temporary nature, like that of the concept of the French Army.
