<h3>Ship Name and Designation History</h3>
This section lists the names and designations that the ship had during
its lifetime.
The list is in chronological order.
<table width="90%">
<tr>
<td valign="top">
<ol>
Porter Class Destroyer<br/>
Keel Laid January 2 1934 - Launched December 11 1935<br/><br/>
<li>'''USS MOFFETT DD 362'''<br/>
Commissioned August 28 1936 - Decommissioned November 2 1945<br/><br/>
Stricken January 28 1947<br/>
Sold May 16 1947 and broken up for scrap
</ol></td>

</td>
</tr>
</table>
<p> </p>

<h3>Naval Covers</h3>
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.
<ol>
<li>[[Moffett_DD_362_Covers_Page_1 | USS MOFFETT Covers Page 1]]    (1936)</li>
<li>[[Moffett_DD_362_Covers_Page_2 | USS MOFFETT Covers Page 2]]    (1937)</li>
<li>[[Moffett_DD_362_Covers_Page_3 | USS MOFFETT Covers Page 3]]    (1937-42)</li>
</ol>
<p> </p>

<h3>Postmarks</h3>
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.
<br/> <br/>
>>> If you have a better example for any of the postmarks, please feel free to replace the
existing example.

<h3>Other Information</h3>
USS MOFFETT earned 2 Battle Stars for her WWII service<br/><br/>
'''NAMESAKE''' - Admiral William Adger Moffett, USN (October 31 1869 – April 4 1933).<br/>   William Adger Moffet, born Charleston, S.C., 31 October 1869, entered the Naval Academy 6 September 1886. During the Spanish-American War he served in CHARLESTON and was captain of the Port of Manila. Increasingly important duty ashore and afloat led to assignment to command CHESTER on the coast of Mexico in 1913 and 1914. He received the '''Medal of Honor''' for brilliant seamanship and valor during the occupation of Vera Cruz in April 1914. During World War I, as a captain, Moffet commanded the Naval Training Station, Great Lakes, directing its growth to the largest recruit training depot. His most significant service began 7 March 1921 when he became Director of Naval Aviation. On 25 July 1921 Rear Admiral Moffet became first Chief of the Bureau of Aeronautics, and until his death in the crash of airship Akron 4 April 1933, headed the Bureau’s work of creating the mighty naval air establishment of today. His vision and expertise were an invaluable gift to his nation and was widely recognized as “the father of naval aviation. {DANFS}
