signal corps

The Signal Corps is a military branch, usually subordinate to a country's army. Many countries have a Signal Corps, whose main function is usually communication (in modern times, usually radio or telephone communication on the battlefield). The word corps is used in the British sense (meaning a branch of military service, such as Corps of Engineers), rather than the American sense (meaning an organizational unit below army and above division). Subordinate units include signal regiments, battalions, etc.

The U.S. Army Signal Corps was founded in 1860 by Major Albert J. Myer.
The Royal Corps of Signals was founded in the United Kingdom (under the name Telegraph Battalion Royal Engineers) in 1884.
