English: Poster for the Canadian Forestry Battalion. "Bushmen and sawmill hands wanted". Ottawa, Canada.
The war effort desperately needed timber for a variety of uses, including the building of bomb-proof dugouts in the trenches and timber ties for the rail lines that transported train-loads of supplies. During World War I, 22,000 members of the Canadian Forestry Corps were turning trees into timber for the Allied war effort. Most of the men were older than the C.E.F. average and had been turned down for service, but could use their special skills through the Canadian Forestry Corps.
