Operation Magic Carpet sought to repatriate US military personnel from around the globe, after World War II. The operation ran between October 1945 and September 1946, a duration of some 11 months. European, Pacific and Asian regions were involved, taking in some eight million servicemen, mostly utilising a wide variety of marine transports. The operation was rated a success.
