ASF 4th SC 1473 SCU

[SonofaMP]

This would be a unit of the Army Service Forces in the 4th Service Command.

The 4th SC under the realignment proposal of 1943 comprised the area of Michigan, Indiana, Wisconsin, Illinois, Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri, N. Dakota, S. Dakota, Kansas, Wyoming, & Colorado with headquarters in Chicago.

The ASF provided a multitude of services in the US for all the General Hospitals, training camps, all posts, camps & stations etc.

I have found no info the individual SC units but the 1473rd probaly was in the Medical Depatment Service.

 

A lot of reading here, but it show the tremendous size & scope of the ASF. :
