What is Convoy?
A '''convoy''' is a group of [[vehicle]]s, typically motor vehicles or ships, traveling together for mutual support and protection. Often, a convoy is organized with armed defensive support. Civilian convoys may be organized, for example when driving through remote areas. A convoy also allows an organized group to arrive together with their equipment. They can start working together immediately, for example at an [[emergency]]. A convoy on land is sometimes called a [[Caravan (travellers)|caravan.]] Convoys at sea came into widespread use when [[warship]]s were made as a different kind of ship. They endangered enemy merchant ships that were not protected by friendly warships. [[Category:War]] [[Category:Transport]]
