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.

    Clemson Class Destroyer
    Keel Laid 31 July 1918 - Launched 28 July 1919

  1. USS HUMPHREYS DD-236
    Commissioned 21 July 1920 - Decommissioned 10 January 1930
    Recommissioned 13 June 1932 - Decommissioned 14 September 1938
    Recommissioned 26 September 1939

  2. USS HUMPHREYS APD-12
    Reclassified High-speed Transport (APD) 1 December 1942

  3. USS HUMPHREYS DD-236
    Reverted to Destroyer (DD) 20 July 1945
    Decommissioned 26 October 1945

    Struck from Naval Register 13 November 1945
    Sold 26 August 1946 and broken up 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 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. USS Humphreys Covers Page 1    (1928-41)

 

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.
