During this reporting period the 159th Transportation Battalion (Terminal) had a complete change of organizational structure, mission and location. On 7 February the Battalion was relieved of its mission of operating the LST Beach and outer harbor discharge at Qui Nhon and was alerted to a new mission of operating a logistical-over-the-shore (LOTS) site in I Corps Tactical Zone (ICTZ). All companies were released from our control and were attached to the 394th Transportation Battalion (Terminal). February was spent in planning, equipping and moving to the new location.
