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.

    Sangamon Class Escort Carrier
    Keel Laid July 10 1938
    Launched April 1 1939 as "ESSO NEW ORLEANS"
    Acquired by U.S. Navy on May 31 1941

  1. USS CHENANGO AO-31
    Commissioned Fleet Oiler (AO) June 20 1941 - Decommissioned March 16 1942
    Redesignated Auxiliary Escort Vessel (AVG) March 16 1942, While in reserve
    Redesignated Auxiliary Aircraft Carrier (ACV) August 20 1942, While in reserve

  2. USS CHENANGO ACV-28
    Recommissioned September 19 1942

  3. USS CHENANGO CVE-28
    Redesignated Escort Carrier (CVE) July 15 1943

    Redesignated Escort Helicopter Carrier (CVHE) June 12 1955, While in reserve

    Struck from Naval Register March 1 1959
    Sold 1962 and scrapped in Spain

 

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. Chenango Covers Page 1     (1941-46)

 

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.
