The Canadian Army is not an independent service. Rather it is the land component of Canada's unified defence forces known as the Canadian Armed Forces. The Canadian Army is commanded from National Defence Headquarters in Ottawa and has been subdivided into five Divisions as of July 2013:〔http://www.forces.gc.ca/site/news-nouvelles/news-nouvelles-eng.asp?id=4880〕 *1st Canadian Division *2nd Canadian Division *3rd Canadian Division *4th Canadian Division *5th Canadian Division Each Division is responsible for the regular army and reserve forces located within its geographical purview – all except the 5th Canadian Division has a regular army mechanized brigade group under its command, together with between two and three militia brigades. The 1st Canadian Division is made up of approximately 2000 personnel who compose a high readiness force. Each mechanized brigade group contains three infantry battalions, an armoured regiment, an artillery regiment, and a combat engineer regiment. Each brigade group also contains a service support battalion, signals squadron and military police platoon. In addition to the four Divisions, the Canadian Army Doctrine and Training Centre, commanded by a major-general and headquartered at McNaughton Barracks, CFB Kingston, Ontario, is responsible for the supervision, integration and delivery of Army training and long-range planning for Army training and doctrine development, including simulation and digitization. It includes a number of schools and training organizations, such as the Combat Training Centre at CFB Gagetown, NB, and the Canadian Manoeuvre Training Centre at CFB Wainwright, AB.〔Department of National Defence, 2011.
