were all military, many were civilian crewed and a large number were U.S. Coast Guard crewed. The USCG crewed vessels have more Army history preserved than most of these little ships.

The last only covers the acquired commercial hulls as "Converted merchant vessels" with no details. A number of vessels were operated by the Army as small coastal freighters and passenger vessels without being formally given FP/FS numbers. These included: Belle of Portugal (also served USN as "YP-321") Southern Seas Some vessels were acquired postwar, including: U.S. Army FSR-791 ("FSR" indicated a refrigerated freight and supply vessel) Hospital ships , an 1898 Newcastle built 312 foot long oil fired passenger/cargo vessel, was the first officially designated hospital ship in the Southwest Pacific and made a single voyage in that role evacuating severely wounded patients, nurses, students and other passengers from Manila, Philippines to Brisbane, Australia. Two Dutch vessels, Maetsuycker and , serving in the Southwest Pacific Area were operationally controlled by the U.S. Army but were certified as hospital ships by the Netherlands, maintained Dutch registry and flag. These ships have also sometimes mistakenly been shown as Australian hospital ships due to their close association with evacuating Australian troops. USAHS Acadia USAHS Aleda E.
