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.

    Courtney Class Destroyer Escort
    Keel Laid April 8 1955 - Launched September 14 1955

  1. USS EVANS DE-1023
    Commissioned June 14 1957 - Decommissioned December 3 1973

    Struck from Navy Register December 12 1973
    Sold August 16 1974

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     (1957-68)

 

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.

NAMESAKE - Ernest Edwin Evans USN (August 13 1908 - October 25 1944)
Evans elisted in the US Navy on May 29 1926. He was appointed to the U.S. Naval Academy in 1927, graduating with the class of 1931, and served in several ships. During World War II, he commanded USS ALDEN DD-211 and USS JOHNSTON DD-557.
During the Battle off Samar, October 25 1944, he led JOHNSTON and her crew in an attack on a greatly superior Japanese battleship and cruiser force. In this action, which materially contributed to the defeat of the Japanese counter-offensive against the Leyte invasion, Commander Evans and his ship were lost. Ernest E. Evans was posthumously awarded The Medal of Honor for his role in the Battle off Samar
