US 57th Transportation Company was a transportation unit that served in the Vietnam War. The unit was primarily responsible for moving cargo and personnel across various locations in Vietnam.

The 57th Transportation Company was activated in Vietnam in May 1966 and was based at the Qui Nhon port. The unit was initially tasked with operating and maintaining the port facilities and providing transportation support to various military units in the area.

In addition to its primary duties, the 57th Transportation Company also provided support to other units during combat operations. The unit's personnel often had to travel through dangerous territory to deliver supplies and equipment to troops in the field.

The 57th Transportation Company was awarded the Meritorious Unit Commendation for its service in Vietnam. The unit was deactivated in December 1972 as part of the drawdown of American forces in Vietnam.
