corps
Organized troop division
A corps is an organized group acting as a unit, especially a military formation comprising multiple divisions under a single commander.
The word extends to any disciplined body working together: the press corps, the diplomatic corps, a corps de ballet.
The final *s* is silent in both singular and plural—one corps, two corps.
