Indian Army Corps of Signals is a corps and an arm of the Indian Army, which handles its military communications. It was formed on 15 February 1911 as a separate entity under Lieutenant Colonel S H Powell, and went on to make important contributions to World War I and World War II.〔Brett-James, Antony ''Report my Signals'' London Hennel Locke 1948 - personal account of a British officer attached to Indian Army in Egypt and Burma〕 The corps celebrated its 100 year anniversary of its raising on 15 February 2011.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://pib.nic.in/newsite/erelease.aspx?relid=57818 )〕 ==History== After a notification was issued as a Special Army Order dated February 3, 1911, for the organisation of two signal companies, the corps was formed on February 15, 1911, when the 31st and 32nd Divisional Signal Companies, the first Signals units, were raised at Fatehgarh in present-day Uttar Pradesh. Lieutenant Colonel SH Powell, Royal Engineers, was the founder and first head of the Indian Signal Service, which later became the Indian Signal Corps.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://mod.nic.in/samachar/feb15-06/h2.htm )〕 Until then, the Sappers which were part of the Indian Army Corps of Engineers that was established in 1777, were in charge of passing battlefield messages. Subsequently, the 33rd and 34th Divisional Signal Companies were raised at Ahmednagar, along with the nucleus of the 41st Wireless Squadron at Roorkee on March 1, 1911.〔 After India gained its independence in 1947, Brigadier CHI Acehurst became the first head of the Corps of Signals, after the 1965 and 1971 wars, the corps underwent important expansions. The corps formally received its regimental colours on 20 February 1965 and on 15 February 1981. In the mid-1980s, a dedicated organisation to test communication systems was formed, which is now known as the Army Centre for Electromagnetics (ACE). The Indian Army became the first agency to use digital technology for both switching and transmission.〔
