<h3>Ship Name and Designation History</h3><br />
This section lists the names and designations that the ship had during <br />
its lifetime.<br />
The list is in chronological order.<br />
<table width="90%"><br />
<tr><br />
<td valign="top"><br />
<ol>Crosley Class High-speed Transport<br/><br />
Keel Laid December 23 1943<br/><br />
Launched February 5 1944 as Destroyer Escort DE-591<br/><br />
Redesignated High-speed Transport (APD) July 17 1944<br/><br/><br />
<li>'''USS KNUDSON APD-101'''<br/><br />
Commissioned November 25 1944 - Decommissioned November 4 1946<br/><br />

Redesignated Amphibious Transport, Small (LPR) July 1 1969, While in reserve<br/><br/><br />

<h3>Naval Covers</h3><br />
This section lists active links to the pages displaying covers associated with the <br />
ship. There should be a separate set of pages for each name of the ship (for <br />
example, Bushnell AG-32 / Sumner AGS-5 are different names for the same <br />
ship so there should be one set of pages for Bushnell and one set for Sumner). <br />
Covers should be presented in chronological order (or as best as can be determined).<br />
<br />
Since a ship may have many covers, they may be split among many pages so it doesn't <br />
take forever for the pages to load. Each page link should be accompanied by a date <br />
range for covers on that page.<br />
<ol><br />
<li>[[USS KNUDSON APD-101_Covers_Page_1 | Covers Page 1 ]] &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1946)</li><br />
</ol><br />
<p>&nbsp;</p><br />
<br />
<h3>Postmarks</h3><br />
This section lists examples of the postmarks used by the ship. There should be a <br />
separate set of postmarks for each name and/or commissioning period. Within each set, <br />
the postmarks should be listed in order of their classification type. If more than one <br />
postmark has the same classification, then they should be further sorted by date of <br />
earliest known usage.<br />
<br />
A postmark should not be included unless accompanied by a close-up image and/or an <br />
image of a cover showing that postmark. Date ranges MUST be based ONLY ON COVERS IN <br />
THE MUSEUM and are expected to change as more covers are added.<br />
<br/>&nbsp;<br/><br />
>>> If you have a better example for any of the postmarks, please feel free to replace the<br />
existing example.<br />

<h3>Other Information</h3><br />
KNUDSON earned the Combat Action Ribbon, the American Campaign Medal, the Asiatic-Pacific Campaign Medal (w/ 1 Battle star), the World War II Victory Medal, the Navy Occupation Service Medal (with Asia clasp), the National Defense Service Medal, the Korean Service Medal, the Philippines Liberation Medal, the United Nations Service Medal and the Republic of Korea War Service Medal during her Naval career.<br/><br/><br />
'''NAMESAKE''' - Milton Lox Knudson USN (October 20 1923 - November 13 1942)<br/><br />
Knudson enlisted in the Navy July 1 1941. While serving in [[LAFFEY_DD_459_ | USS LAFFEY DD-459]] in the Southwest Pacific he distinguished himself September 15 1942 during rescue operations for survivors of the torpedoed [[WASP_CV_7_ | USS WASP CV-7]]. With "courageous disregard" for his personal safety, he dived over the side of his ship and swam considerable distances with lines to rescue the stricken carrier's exhausted sailors, thus saving the lives of many who otherwise might have perished. During the heroic night naval action off Guadalcanal November 13, Seaman First Class Knudson was killed when LAFFEY was sunk by Japanese torpedoes and gunfire. He was posthumously awarded the Navy and Marine Corps Medal for his valor.<br />
