Ship Name and Designation History

This section lists the names and designations that the ship had during its lifetime. The list is in chronological order.

    Auk Class Minesweeper
    Keel Laid August 19 1942 for Great Britain as HMS AMELIA BAM-3
    Retained by U.S. Navy and redesignated Minesweeper (AM) January 23 1943
    Launched January 30 1943

  1. USS COMPETENT AM-316
    Commissioned November 10 1943 - Decommissioned January 30 1947
    Recommissioned February 29 1952

  2. USS COMPETENT MSF-316
    Reclassified Fleet Minesweeper (Steel Hull) (MSF) February 7 1955
    Decommissioned April 15 1955
    Laid up in Pacific Reserve Fleet

  3. ARM PONCIANO ARRIAGA IG-4 (Mexican Naval Service)
    Sold to Mexico September 19 1972 and renamed

    Fate unknown

Naval Covers

This section lists active links to the pages displaying covers associated with the ship. There should be a separate set of pages for each name of the ship (for example, Bushnell AG-32 / Sumner AGS-5 are different names for the same ship so there should be one set of pages for Bushnell and one set for Sumner). Covers should be presented in chronological order (or as best as can be determined).

Since a ship may have many covers, they may be split among many pages so it doesn't take forever for the pages to load. Each page link should be accompanied by a date range for covers on that page.

  1. Covers Page 1     (1946)

 

Postmarks

This section lists examples of the postmarks used by the ship. There should be a separate set of postmarks for each name and/or commissioning period. Within each set, the postmarks should be listed in order of their classification type. If more than one postmark has the same classification, then they should be further sorted by date of earliest known usage.

A postmark should not be included unless accompanied by a close-up image and/or an image of a cover showing that postmark. Date ranges MUST be based ONLY ON COVERS IN THE MUSEUM and are expected to change as more covers are added.
 
>>> If you have a better example for any of the postmarks, please feel free to replace the existing example.
