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.

    Balao Class Submarine
    Keel Laid August 7 1943 - Launched January 9 1944

  1. USS HAWKBILL SS-366
    Commissioned May 17 1944 - Decommissioned September 30 1946
    Recommissioned May 5 1952 - Decommissioned July 29 1952
    Underwent Guppy conversion
    Recommissioned December 10 1952 - Decommissioned April 21 1953

    Struck from Naval Register February 20 1970

  2. ZEELEEUW S-803 (Dutch Naval Service)
    Sold to The Netherlands February 20 1970 and renamed

    Sold November 24 1970 to A.J. Van Den Kooy N.V. Rijnacker Netherlands

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     (DATE RANGE)

 

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.
