Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. USS Carrillo (ID-1406) was a United States Navy cargo ship in commission from 1918 to 1919. SS Carrillo was built as a commercial passenger-cargo ship in 1911 at Belfast, Northern Ireland, by Workman, Clarke and Company. The United States Shipping Board transferred her to the U.S. Navy for World War I service on 16 September 1918. The Navy assigned her the naval registry Identification Number (Id. No.) 1406 and commissioned her the same day as USS Carrillo with Lieutenant Commander A. D. Livingston, USNRF, in command. Assigned to the Cruiser and Transport Force, Carrillo made four voyages to France during and after the war, carrying meats, motor trucks, aviation supplies, and artillery to American forces operating in Europe. On 15 April 1919, she returned to the United States at Staten Island, New York, from the last of these voyages.
