Excerpt from Army Transport Service: 1918 1. The Army Transport Service is organized as a special branch of the Quartermaster´s Department, United States Army, for the purpose of transporting troops and supplies by water. All necessary expenses incident to that service will be paid from the appropriations made for the support of the Army. 2. The Transport Service will be under the supervision of the Quartermaster-General and conducted by its own officers and employees and made, as far as practicable, independent of other branches of the service. Such matters as relate to subsistence and medical attendance will be under the supervision of the Chiefs of the Subsistence and Medical Departments. To insure efficient service the officers representing the different departments in the Transport Service must use their best endeavors in cooperating with each other in the execution of the duties respectively intrusted to them. 3.
