The U.S. Army Transport (U.S.A.T.) is erroneously being applied to all Army vessels, particularly of the huge and varied WW II fleet. That is completely in error. It was definitely used for larger Army owned and possibly long term bareboat charter vessels. It was never used for numerous specialized vessels such as mine planters, the coastal transports (FS) or time/voyage time charter cargo vessels. The format for FS and many of the other Army vessels is clearly seen in the NavSource photo of U.S. Army FS-288. Palmeira (talk) 23:32, 10 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
