[2]NHHC, U.S. Navy Abbreviations of World War II, entry APc — Coastal Transport (small) [other_primary]
- Locator
- Entry APc — Coastal Transport (small)
- Finding type
- vessel_history
- Finding
- The Navy's World War II abbreviation list defines APc as coastal transport (small). This record therefore uses the small coastal transport type for the commissioned APc-30 identity. AMc-184 is retained as a planned-designation alias per the batch correction; the cited abbreviation list does not document that designation history.

- Limitations
- The Navy abbreviation list establishes the type code, not APc-30's individual construction history or the planned AMc-184 designation. The AMc-184 consolidation is a batch-supplied identity correction.
