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.

    LST-1153 Talbot County Class Tank Landing Ship
    Keel Laid August 4 1945 - Launched July 19 1946

  1. USS LST-1154
    Commissioned May 24 1949

  2. USS TALLAHATCHIE COUNTY LST-1154
    Named July 1 1955
    Decommissioned December 9 1960

  3. USS TALLAHATCHIE COUNTY AVB-2
    Recommissioned Advance Aviation Base Ship (AVB) February 3 1962
    Decommissioned January 15 1970

    Struck from Naval Register January 15 1970
    Sold July 1970 to Contieri Navali Santa Maria, Genoa, Italy for scrap

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. USS LST-1154 Covers Page 1     (1949)
  2. USS Tallahatchie County Covers Page 1     (1969)

 

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.
