Note: This cachet was originally used by the Battleship Oregon Chapter in 1934. The chapter no longer sponsored cachets after 1938, and was defunct sometime in 1939. However, McCamley used this old cachet, deleted the year, but left the wording about the old chapter. He also converted the image to a rubber stamp, so it lacks much of the original detail. Cancels are usually seen on USS COLORADO, but it was also used on other ships.
