The History:  The United States Military Mission to Moscow was organized in September of 1943 with the mission of promoting the closest possible coordination of military efforts between the united States and the U.S.S.R.  The mission was placed under the control of the American ambassador to Russia inorder to ensure that all elements would operate cohesively.  A special supply unit was formed to handle Lend-Lease matters under the coordination and command control of the ambassador.  One  other objective was to win the confidence of the Russians so that a basis could be established for closer cooperation  in carrying out operational plans against Germany.  The Mission was discontinued with the end of Lend-Lease Aid in August of 1945.
