Ship Name and Designation History

This section lists the names and designations that the ship had during its lifetime. The list is in chronological order.


    Wickes Class Destroyer
    Keel Laid November 15 1917 - Launched April 25 1918

  1. USS BOGGS Destroyer No. 136
    Commissioned September 23 1918

  2. USS BOGGS DD-136
    Designated (DD) July 17 1920
    Decommissioned June 29 1922
    Reclassified Unclassified Miscellaneous (IX) August 11 1931, While in reserve
    Renamed LIGHT TARGET No. 2 IX-36 August 11 1931, While in reserve
    Name restored and reclassified Miscellaneous Auxiliary (AG) September 5 1931

  3. USS BOGGS AG-19

    Decommissioned March 30 1946

    Struck from Naval Register April 12 1946
    Sold November 27 1946 and broken up for scrap

 

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.

  1. USS Boggs DD-136 Covers Page 1     (1918-1922)
  2. USS Boggs AG-19 Covers Page 1     (1932-1935)
  3. USS Boggs DMS-3 Covers Page 1     (1940-1945)
  4. USS Boggs AG-19 Covers Page 1     (1945-1946)

 

Postmarks

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