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.


    Indiana Class Battleship
    Keel Laid November 19 1891 - Launched October 26 1893

  1. USS OREGON BB-3
    Commissioned July 15 1896 - Decommissioned April 27 1906
    Recommissioned August 29 1911 - Decommissioned June 12 1919
    Recommissioned August 21 1919 - Decommissioned October 4 1919

    Used as Ammunition Storage Hulk at Guam

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 does not take forever for the pages to load. Each page link should be accompanied by a date range for covers on that page.

  1. USS Oregon Battleship No. 3 Covers Page 1    (1899-1906)
  2. USS Oregon Photo Postcards Page 2    
  3. USS Oregon BB-3 Covers Page 3    (1934-2005)

 

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.
