[QUOTE]Originally posted by CaptainMike: [QB] OK.. heres some deal on Navy use of the term 'commissioned' excerpts from the Dictionary of American Naval Fighting Ships, about the status and history of vessels: I picked the Yorktown but found a few who were decommissioned and then recommissioned for what simply amounted to a refit: CV-10 Yorktown: [QUOTE]On 21 March 1955, she was placed in commission, in reserve, at the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard where she was to receive extensive modifications-most significantly, an angled flight deck to increase her jet aircraft launching capability. She completed her conversion that fall and, on 14 October, was placed back in full commission. The aircraft carrier resumed normal operations along the west coast soon after recommissioning. [/QUOTE] and also the Constitution in an older case about the status of a ship while being worked upon: [QUOTE]Ordered to Boston, she was placed in ordinary for 6 years, undergoing extensive repair. In May 1821 she was recommissioned, serving as flagship of the Mediterranean Squadron, under Commodore Jacob Jones [/QUOTE] [/QB][/QUOTE]
