MARCOM was formed on 1 February 1968 following the amalgamation of the three branches of the Canadian military--the Royal Canadian Navy, the Canadian Army, and the Royal Canadian Air Force. This was the first time a nation with a modernised military had combined sea, land, and air branches into a unified-command structure. The move also saw the fleet air arm of the Royal Canadian Navy transfer to the Canadian Forces Air Command (AIRCOM).
