[edit]

There is a lot of ship history with USC&GS through NOAA service until Pathfinder's end in 1971. As with several of these ships built during the war there is as much civilian service as USN with NOAA History available. I see one example in which the two are split and cross referenced. I've seen others where service with two organizations are handled on one page. Development on separate pages could be merged into one article and might be easier as far as organization. Combined articles could be split if that is the preference. Standards? Policy? Preferences? Palmeira (talk) 17:49, 12 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Note on date error in DANFS

[edit]

DANFS, in one of its fairly rare lapses, is the origin of the 1929 build date that made no sense with the appearance and other details of the ship. Multiple NOAA and other sources, some added as cites, contain detail on the actual 1941-1942 construction and fitting out of the ship, including photographs.
