Covers should be listed in chronological order. Use the postmark date or best guess.

Each entry provides a link to the image of the front of the cover. There is also the option to have a link to the image of the back of the cover if there is anything of significance there. Finally, there is the primary date for the cover and the classification types for all postmarks based on the Locy System.

Ship Recommissioning
Ship Commissioning

Notes: Cachet Maker: Louis C & Mae Weigand
Although the cachet commemorates the ship's "Commmissioning", the Thornton was actually recommissioned on March 5, 1941. November 11, 1941 is not significant to any known ship event so it is unclear why this cover was canceled on this date.
