Quartermaster Units
A resource for Quartermaster Unit History
The Quartermaster Museum frequently receives requests for information on Quartermaster units. Most of these questions relate to the World War II period when there were over 3,000 Quartermaster units in existence. The Quartermaster Museum has information on only a handful of Quartermaster units. If the unit you are looking for is not listed here then there is probably not information on it in the museum archives/library.
