Dictionary of American Naval Fighting Ships Volume I A-B 1959. Reprint with Corrections 1964

196442656Washington DC: GPO 1964. Presumed First printing thus. Hardcover. Good. Quarto. xvii 1 351 3 pages. This volume ONLY. Illustrations. Bibliography. Appendices. Board/spine edges worn soiling inside boards & flyleaves address sticker inside front flyleaf. This is the corrected version . The Dictionary of American Naval Fighting Ships DANFS is the official reference work for the basic facts about ships used by the United States Navy. When the writing project was developed the parameters for this series were designed to cover only commissioned US Navy ships with assigned names. If the ship was not assigned a name it was not included in the histories written for the series. In addition to the ship entries DANFS and the online links have been expanded to include appendices on small craft histories of Confederate Navy ships and various essays related to naval ships. Contains appendices on battleships cruisers submarines including submarine tenders and submarine rescue vessels torpedo boats and destroyers and escort vessels. DANFS was published in print by the Naval Historical Center NHC as bound hardcover volumes ordered by ship name from Volume I A-B in 1959 to Volume VIII W-Z in 1981. Several volumes subsequently went out of print. In 1991 a revised Volume I Part A covering only ship names beginning with A was released. Work continues on revisions of the remaining volumes. As the DANFS is a work of the U.S. government its content is in the public domain and the text is often quoted verbatim in other works including in some cases Wikipedia articles. Many websites organized by former and active crew members of U.S. Navy vessels include a copy of their ships' DANFS entries. The Dictionary limits itself largely to basic descriptions and brief operational notes and includes almost no analysis or historical context. Unless otherwise specified all the ships illustrated in this volume are commission ships of the United States Navy with their names preceded by the Identification USS. GPO hardcover

A Navy Directory formerly the Navy List or Naval Register is an official list of naval officers their ranks and seniority the ships which they command or to which they are appointed etc. that is published by the government or naval authorities of a country. The Navy List fulfills an important function in international law in that warships are required by article 29 of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea to be commanded by a commissioned officer whose name appears in the appropriate service list. Past copies of the Navy List are also important sources of information for historians and genealogists. The list in the United States Navy is the Naval Register which now is updated online on a continuous basis. When a ship is removed from the Naval Vessel Register in the United States or from a naval list of any other country the ship is said to be "stricken" Government Printing Office hardcover

Limitations on Punishments. Appendix-Regulations for Prevention Collisions. Table of Changes. Index. These regulations were updated after the Spanish-American War and were the standard in place at the time the United States entered the First World War. United States Navy Regulations is the principal regulatory document of the Department of the Navy not just the United States Navy endowed with the sanction of law as to duty responsibility authority distinctions and relationships of various officials organizations and individuals. Navy Regulations are issued by the Secretary of the Navy and are permanent regulations of general applicability as opposed to other regulations that he or she may issue in accordance with law. The Navy Regulations serve in effect much as a vehicle of implementation of Title 10 of the United States Code as it pertains to the Naval Services. However Navy Regulations do not take legal precedence over any order or directive issued by either the President or Secretary of Defense or of an Act of Congress. The Chief of Naval Operations is responsible for maintaining the Navy Regulations and for ensuring that they conform to the current needs of the Department of the Navy. Other directives issued within the Department of the Navy may not conflict with alter or amend any provision of Navy Regulations. Any additions changes or deletions to the U.S. Navy Regulations must be approved by the Secretary of the Navy. Navy Regulations began with the enactment by the Second Continental Congress of the "Rules for the Regulation of the Navy of the United Colonies" on November 28 1775. The first issuance by the United States Government which covered this subject matter was "An Act for the Government of the Navy of the United States" enacted on March 2 1799. This was followed the next year by "An Act for the Better Government of the Navy of the United States." In the years preceding the American Civil War twelve successor publications were promulgated under a number of titles by the President the Navy Department and the Secretary of the Navy. A decision by the Attorney General that the last of the pre-Civil War issuances was invalid led to the inclusion in the 1862 naval appropriations bill of a provision that "the orders regulations and instructions heretofore issued by the Secretary of the Navy be and they are hereby recognized as the regulations of the Navy Department subject however to such alterations as the Secretary of the Navy may adopt with the approbation of the President of the United States." Thirteen editions of Navy Regulations were published in accordance with this authority later codified as Section 1547 Revised Statutes between 1865 and 1948. Congress enacted the Goldwater-Nichols Department of Defense Reorganization Act of 1986 Pub. L. 99-443 which granted each of the service secretaries the explicit authority to prescribe regulations to carry out his or her statutory functions powers and duties.
