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.

    Tacoma Class Patrol Frigate
    Authorized as Patrol Gunboat PG-156
    Reclassified Patrol Frigate (PF) June 25 1943
    Keel Laid August 28 1943 - Launched September 27 1943

  1. USS ROCKFORD PF-48
    Commissioned March 6 1944 - Decommissioned August 27 1945

  2. EK-20 (Soviet Naval Service)
    Leased to the Soviet Union and renamed
    Returned to U.S. custody November 1 1949

  3. APNOK 62 (South Korean Naval Service)
    Transferred to South Korea October 23 1950 and renamed
    Irreparably damaged (collision) May 21 1952
    Returned to U.S. custody September 3 1952

    Struck from Naval Register May 26 1952
    Sunk as target September 30 1953

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. Covers Page 1     (1945)

 

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.
