USS Brooklyn is mothballed. |
Note: "Fake cancels exist from this ship in 1946. The T-3 dated Apr 10, 1946 with "ANCS/1935-1946" is definitely a fake. The T-3 with other 1946 dates may be fakes. The 2(n) with a slightly flattened bottom and side of the dial may also be a forgery." {USCS Postmark Catalog}
