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.


    Kitty Hawk Class Attack Carrier
    Keel Laid January 9 1961 - Launched February 1 1964

  1. USS AMERICA CVA 66
    Commissioned January 23 1965

  2. USS AMERICA CV 66
    Redesignated Multi-purpose Aircraft Carrier (CV) June 30 1975
    Decommissioned September 30 1996

    Struck from Naval Register September 30 1996
    Sunk May 14 2005 as target off The Virginia Coast


Naval Covers

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 America CV-66 Covers Page 1    (1965-96)

 

Postmarks

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