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.

    Haskell Class Attack Transport
    Keel Laid 6 October 1944 - Launched 2 December 1944
    Acquired by US Navy 27 February 1945

  1. USS COLLINGSWORTH APA-146
  2. Commissioned 27 February 1945 - Decommissioned 17 March 1946

    Struck from Naval Register 28 March 1946

  3. USS COLLINGSWORTH LPA-146
  4. Reclassified Amphibious Transport (LPA) 1 January 1969 while in reserve

    Withdrawn from reserve by US Navy for stripping 23 June 1983
    Sold for scrapping 15 April 1985

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 Collingsworth APA-146 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.
