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.

    Bogue Class Escort Carrier
    Keel Laid January 19 1942 - Acquired U.S. Navy May 1 1942
    Launched May 22 1942 as Aircraft Escort Vessel (AVG)
    Redesignated Auxiliary Aircraft Carrier (ACV) August 20 1942

  1. USS BARNES ACV-20
    Commissioned February 20 1943

  2. USS BARNES CVE-20
    Redesignated Escort Carrier (CVE) July 15 1943
    Decommissioned August 29 1946
    Redesignated Escort Helicopter Carrier (CVHE) June 12 1955, while in reserve

    Struck from Naval Register March 1 1959
    Sold October 1 1959 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 incarnation of the ship (ie, for each entry in the "Ship Name and Designation History" section). 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. ACV-20 Covers Page 1     (1943)
  2. CVE-20 Covers Page 1     (1944-46)

 

Postmarks

This section lists examples of the postmarks used by the ship. There should be a separate set of postmarks for each incarnation of the ship (ie, for each entry in the "Ship Name and Designation History" section). 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.
