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.

    LST-542 Class Tank Landing Ship
    Keel Laid October 30 1944 - Launched January 24 1945

  1. USS LST-1122
    Commissioned February 14 1945 - Decommissioned June 15 1949
    Laid up in Pacific Reserve Fleet, San Diego Group
    Recommissioned November 8 1950

  2. USS SAN JOAQUIN COUNTY LST-1122
    Named July 1 1955
    Decommissioned September 26 1969
    Laid up in Pacific Reserve Fleet, Bremerton Group

    Struck from Naval Register May 1 1972
    Sold September 1 1974 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 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. LST-1122 Covers Page 1     (1946-49)

 

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.
