Brian,

Forwarding takes place entirely on the server, while redirecting sends a 
  command back to the browser so that the browser opens a connection to 
a different URL. Redirecting is slower, but has some advantages. For 
example, the browser shows the redirected URL while if you forward, the 
browser shows the original URL.
