<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>Cannon Class Type DET Destroyer Escort<br/>
Keel Laid June 1 1943 - Launched June 4 1944<br/><br/>
<li>'''USS NEAL A. SCOTT DE-769'''<br/>
Commissioned July 31 1944 - Decommissioned April 30 1946<br/><br/>
Struck from Naval Register June 1 1968<br/>
Sold July 1969 for scrap
</ol></td>
<td align="center" width="220" valign="top">

</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 name of the ship (for
example, Bushnell AG-32 / Sumner AGS-5 are different names for the same
ship so there should be one set of pages for Bushnell and one set for Sumner).
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> Covers Page 1     (DATE RANGE)</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 name and/or commissioning period. 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>
NEAL A. SCOTT received 1 battle star for her World War II service<br/><br/>
Awards, Citations and Campaign Ribbons...<br/>
American Campaign Medal - European-Africa-Middle East Campaign Medal w/ 1 star - World War II Victory Medal<br/><br/>
'''NAMESAKE''' - Neal Anderson Scott USN (May 21 1919 - October 26 1942)<br/>
Scott was appointed Assistant Paymaster with the rank of Ensign, U.S. Naval Reserve, April 8 1942. After instruction at the Navy Supply Corps School, Harvard University Graduate School of Business Administration, Boston, Massachusetts, he was ordered to the 12th Naval District for further assignment. On October 10 1942, Ensign Scott reported for duty in [[SMITH DD 378|USS SMITH DD-378]], then operating in the Solomons. On the 26th, as the Battle of the Santa Cruz Islands raged, SMITH, assigned to screen [[ENTERPRISE CV 6|USS ENTERPRISE CV-6]], was crashed by a torpedo plane causing the entire forward topside to erupt in flames. Ensign Scott, mortally wounded, “...exhorted the gun crews to sustain heavy and accurate fire against the enemy...” in defense of ENTERPRISE. Although he died of his wounds before the day was over, “...his gallant fighting spirit and remarkable courage served as an inspiration to the crew of the ship in helping to render ineffective the enemy attacks...” In recognition of his contribution, Ensign Scott was posthumously awarded the Navy Cross
