<h3>Naval Covers</h3>
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 listed in chronological order. Use the postmark date or best guess. This applies to covers with add-on cachets as well.<br/><br/>

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.

    U.S. Nuclear Powered Merchant Ship
    Built by New York Shipbuilding Corporation, Camden, New Jersey
    Launched 21 July 1959
    Took another 2.5 years to complete the reactor installation and initial trials
    Full reactor power was achieved in April 1962

  1. NS SAVANNAH (Commercial Service))
    2. Delivered on May 1, 1962, to the U.S. Maritime Administration (MARAD) and turned over to the States Marine Lines for operation
    Maiden voyage on 20 August 1962
    In Service 1964
    Served as a passenger-cargo liner until 1965, when passenger service was discontinued
    Out of Service 1971
    Designated a National Historic Landmark
    Decommissioning of nuclear power plant announced on 4 December 2023 by MARAD

    Final disposition unknown

 

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 listed in chronological order. Use the postmark date or best guess. This applies to covers with add-on cachets as well.
