U.S. Army To Navy: Take Our Boats - Defense News: "U.S. Army operates a fleet of watercraft to move around cargo and vehicles. But now, under Defense Department pressure to save money and reduce redundancies, the service is in talks with the U.S. Navy over the potential transfer of the Army's watercraft mission and its vessels.
'We're in discussions with the Navy to sort of really look through the missions and functions of Army watercraft,' said Kevin Fahey, the Army's program executive officer for combat support and combat service support. 'No decision has been made pertaining to it.'
The talks are taking place at the highest levels of both services, Fahey said, with the Office of the Deputy Chief of Staff for Logistics (G-4) in the lead for the Army."
