This is a List of World War II vessel types of the United States using during World War II. This list includes submarines, battleships, minelayers, oilers, barges, pontoon rafts and other types of water craft, boats and ships. {{asof|2014}} this list is not complete. ArmyUnder the Army organization of 1940, the Army Quartermaster was charged with the responsibility of providing the Army with all water transport services except those specifically authorized; for the Corps of Engineers in river and harbor work, for the Coast Artillery Corps in mine planting, and for the Signal Corps in cable laying (the Army had no communication ships at this time). In March 1942, most of the transportation functions of the Army Quartermaster were consolidated into the Transportation Division of the newly created Services of Supply and later that same year, on July 31, the Transportation Corps was established.[1][2] Coast Artillery Corps Mine Planter ServiceThe Army Mine Planter Service was responsible for the minefields of the Coast Artillery Corps' coast defenses. The largest vessels of the service were the U.S. Army Mine Planter (USAMP), which was equipped to install mines and associated control cables. Smaller vessels known as "junior mine planters" or "pup planters", were occasionally employed as mine planters, but they mostly served as freight and passenger boats for river and harbor duty with the Harbor Boat Service.[3] In addition to the mine planters, there were distribution box boats, used for servicing the mine-cable distribution boxes and rugged utility boats called motor mine yawls.[4] Mine ships{{details|topic=Mine Planters|List of ships of the United States Army}}

Communication shipsArmy communications ships in the South West Pacific theater of World War II provided radio relay services and acted as command posts for forward elements ashore.[6]
Surviving examples include:
Transportation Corps - Water DivisionSouth West Pacific Area (SWPA) - Services of Supply (USASOS)Operated in the Southwest Pacific Area.[10] Small Ships SectionAs there was a need for a fleet of shallow-draft vessels that could navigate among coral reefs, use primitive landing places far up the coast of New Guinea, and land along the outlying islands. An "S" fleet under Army control was created using local Australian vessels crewed largely by civilian Australians and New Zealanders. It was a miscellaneous collection of luggers, rusty trawlers, old schooners, launches, ketches, yawls, and yachts.[11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18] Water Branch - Army Transport Service (ATS)The Army Transport Service (ATS), originating with the Quartermaster Corps in 1898 and continuing into Transportation Corps as a division, operated the Army's large ships, most of which were transports, but ATS also manned the Army's large cable ships.
Surviving examples include:
Cargo ships moved freight around the world.[22][23] Harbor Branch - Harbor Boat Service (HBS)FM 55-130 Small Boats and Harbor Craft[24]
The Harbor Craft Company is organized for the purpose of ferrying to shore cargo from freighters and transports arriving in theaters of operation. The vessels may either be riding offshore at anchor in the open sea or more likely, anchored in a harbor. Cargo from the ships is loaded by Transportation Corps port company personnel onto barges. Then tugs, tow boats, or marine tractors propel the barges to the shore for unloading. Any cargo too heavy for the vessel's gear to lift is handled by a 60-ton floating crane.
Coastwise and inter-island cargo ships, sometimes known as coastal freighters.
The small boat company provided regular coastal and island service to bases in the Aleutian and Pacific Islands to supply food and equipment transported by small coastal and inter-island vessels and water craft that were under 200 feet or under 1,000 gross tons of the following vessel types.[25][26][27][28]
FS-80 to FS-90 were merchant vessels refitted for wartime operation[29] Built during World War II:
Surviving examples include:
Air Corps - Quartermaster Corps (QMC) boat serviceLate in 1943 all rescue-boat activities were reassigned to the Army Air Forces. Unit Designation Chronology
Rescue BoatsRescue boats included the following.[48][49]
Corps of EngineersRivers & Harbors DivisionReorganized 6 June 1942 as Construction Division - Engineering and Operations branches.[50]
Surviving examples include:
Troops DivisionThe 1943 Engineer Field Manual described a table of organization and equipment for specialized types of engineering units.[51] These included:[52]
The engineer Engineer Port Repair ship is equipped with repair facilities that include a heavy crane and a machine shop and maintains channels and ship berths by removing sunken ships and other obstructions. It also maintains channel markings and other aids for pilots. It does needed work on docks and wharves in conjunction with engineer port construction and repair groups.
The primary mission of the engineer port construction and repair group is to make ready for use the facilities of ports of debarkation in a theater of operations. and to perform work involved in improvement or expansion of such ports, exclusive of harbors. Its work is performed in conjunction with engineer port repair ship operations offshore. The construction platoon consists of a divers' section under the supervision of an officer, as master diver. Enlisted personnel consists of marine divers and divers' attendants. This section does underwater work incident to construction of quay walls, wharves, piers, etc.[53][54][55][56][57][58]
Surviving examples include:
The Engineer Amphibian Brigade, redesignated in 1943 as Engineer Special Brigade provided personnel and equipment for transporting combat troops from a friendly near shore to a hostile far shore when the distance is not over 100 miles. The brigade resupplies these troops during the early stages of establishing a beachhead. The brigade can transport one division when reinforced by naval LCT boats.
A Treadway bridge company is attached to an armored division in river-crossing operations to provide a bridge for heavy vehicles.[60] Equipment included a steel-treadway bridge M1, providing a floating bridge about 1,080 feet long, or a steel-treadway bridge M2, providing a floating bridge about 864 feet long.
The company is attached to a division in river-crossing operations to provide bridges and rafts. Equipment included two units of M3 pneumatic bridge equipage or two units of M1938 10-ton ponton bridge equipment. Their stream-crossing equipment included: One unit of footbridge, M1938 Four ferry set, No. 1, Infantry Support Twelve raft, set No. 1, Infantry Support Seventy assault boats, M2
The Heavy ponton battalion was attached to a corps in river-crossing operations to provide bridges and rafts capable of supporting heavier loads. Bridges and rafts are constructed of four units of 25-ton heavy ponton equipment, M1940.
Maritime Commission vesselsVessels operated by the Maritime Commission included Liberty and Victory Ships. Liberty shipSurviving examples include:

NavyAmphibious warfare type
Amphibious warfare vessels include all ships with organic capability for amphibious warfare and which have characteristics enabling long duration operations on the high seas. There are two classifications of craft: amphibious warfare ships which are built to cross oceans, and landing craft, which are designed to take troops from ship to shore in an invasion. Some vessels called "landing ships" did not have the capability to off-load troops and supplies onto beaches; they were just transports or command-and-control vessels. [61][62][63][64]Ships
