Supply ships are typically the first thing to be targeted. They are the lifeline of the fleet. You win a war faster by cutting logistics than you do by sinking warships. Hence the reason why supply ships usually have significant warship escorts.
That being said, we owned the sea lanes in VN so there was almost zero danger for any large naval vessel.
