<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.
<ol>
Sims Class Destroyer<br/>
Keel Laid December 20 1937 - Launched December 8 1938<br/><br/>
<li>'''USS MUSTIN DD-413'''<br/>
Commissioned September 15 1939 - Decommissioned August 29 1946<br/>
Damaged in Atom Bomb Test at Bikini Atoll July 1946 <br/><br/>
Scuttled off Kwajalein April 18 1948<br/>
Stricken April 30 1948
</ol>
<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>[[Mustin_DD_413_Covers_Page_1 | Covers Page 1]]    (1939-41)</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>
MUSTIN received 13 battle stars for World War II service<br/><br/>
'''NAMESAKE''' - Henry C. Mustin (February 6 1874 - August 23 1923)<br/>
Mustin was appointed to the Naval Academy in 1892. He was commended for distinguished service in command of SAMAR during the capture of Vigan, Philippines, in 1899, when he towed boats carrying the landing party to shore and covered the assault so effectively that not one casualty was suffered. A key member of the Navy’s first band of gallant aviators, Mustin piloted the first aircraft ever catapulted from a ship, and flew the first combat missions of American aircraft from Mississippi during the Mexican campaign in 1914. Captain Mustin was the first Commander of Aircraft Squadrons, Battle Fleet. He died August 23 1923
