<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><br/>
Rudderow Class Destroyer Escort<br/>
Keel Laid February 27 1945 as "DE-601"<br/>
Redesignated a Crosley Class High-speed Transport while under construction<br/>
Launched April 28 1945<br/><br/>
<li>'''USS WALSH APD-111'''<br/>Commissioned July 11 1945 - Decommissioned April 26 1946<br/>
Laid up in the Florida and Texas Reserve Fleets<br/>
Struck from the Naval Register May 1 1966<br/>
Sold for scrapping July 1968
</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>[[Walsh_APD_111_Covers_Page_1 | Covers Page 1]]    (1945)</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>
'''NAMESAKE''' - Lt.(jg.) Patrick Joseph Walsh, USNR (January 19 1908 - September 12 1945)<br/>
        Walsh accepted a commission in the Naval Reserve as a lieutenant, junior grade, on May 4 1942 in New York City. Receiving instruction at the Naval Training School, Boston, Mass., he later received more specialized training at the Armed Guard School, Little Creek, Va., from June 16 to July 22 1942.<br/>
        As Armed Guard Commander on "SS Patrick J. Hurley", Lt.(jg.) Walsh was killed in a brief, one-sided engagement with a German U-boat in the North Atlantic. On the night of September 12 1942, U-512 stealthily surfaced and closed the merchantman, undetected, before she opened fire with devastating effect. Walsh fell severely wounded in the initial shelling, taking shrapnel in the throat. In spite of the withering machine-gun fire directed at his battle station on the bridge, Lt.(jg.) Walsh remained at his post, though weak from loss of blood. For displaying selfless gallantry in battle, Walsh was posthumously awarded the Silver Star and Purple Heart medals.
