The Australian Army Transportation Corps (AATC) was a corps of the Australian Army that was responsible for various transportation functions including rail, water and terminal/dock operations. Formed in the final days of World War II, the corps had only a very short existence, lasting until mid-1947 when its functions were subsumed by the Royal Australian Engineers again. This situation would remain until the early 1970s when the Royal Australian Corps of Transport was formed.
