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.

    Fletcher Class Destroyer
    Keel Laid May 14 1941 - Launched March 16 1942

  1. USS CHARLES AUSBURNE DD-570
  2. Commissioned November 24 1942 - Decommissioned April 18 1946
    Struck from Naval Register December 1 1967

  3. ZERSTORER 6 D180 (German Naval Service) (alt: ZERSTÖRER)
  4. Transferred to Germany April 12 1960 and renamed
    NATO designation D180

    Stricken by German Navy October 1968 and broken up 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. USS Charles Ausburne DD-570 Covers Page 1    (1943-45)

 

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.

Other Information

USS CHARLES AUSBURNE earned the Presidential Unit Citation, the Asiatic-Pacific Medal with 11 Battle Stars and the WWII Victory Medal for her WWII service.

NAMESAKE - Charles Lawrence Ausburne, USN (July 26 1889 - October 17 1917).
      Ausburne enlisted in the United States Navy February 25, 1908. As an Electrician First Class, Ausburne manned the emergency wireless station in the Army transport USAT Antilles, and following the ship's fatal torpedoing October 17, 1917 by U-105, stood to his duty until the ship sank beneath him. His gallantry was recognized in the posthumous award of the Navy Cross.

Two ships of the U.S. Navy have been named in his honor - USS Charles Ausburn DD-294 and USS Charles Ausburne DD-570.

The ships sponsor was Mrs. W. H. Cotton.
