Quartermaster Corps - Okinawa

The Quartermaster Corps - Okinawa played a pivotal role in supporting U.S. military operations in the Pacific Theater during and after World War II. Established on Okinawa following the island’s capture in 1945, the unit was responsible for logistics, supply distribution, and sustaining the needs of tens of thousands of soldiers during the final months of the war and subsequent occupation. The Corps managed vast stockpiles of food, fuel, clothing, and equipment, ensuring continuous support for combat and reconstruction efforts. Their efficiency and adaptability contributed significantly to the success of U.S. operations and the stabilization of Okinawa as a strategic American base in the Asia-Pacific region.
