The article states that this ship was the lead ship of her class, but the USS Tulare article claims that the class was called after that ship, not the Paul Revere. To make matters worse, the Global Security site refers to this class of ship as the C4-S-1a Mariner class, and indicates that the Paul Revere, Tulare, Francis Marion, Compass Island and Observation Island were all commissioned ships of this class. The Paul Revere is indeed listed first, but only because of the list being in alphabetical order. All of these ships (including a large number which were never taken into the Navy) were built to pretty much the same plan, and originally received the name Mariner, with a distinction in the first part of the name, i.e. Diamond Mariner. I don't know quite why I'm posting this, but it seems that it might be a good idea to gather these four or five ships into a ship-class category. Just what to call the class? I'm up for Paul Revere (having one time sailed on this vessel in my military days I have a special feeling for it), but maybe it should be the Mariner-class. Anyone want to comment? I have no idea what the US Navy thinks. There seems to be little or no official word on this. Cyberherbalist ( talk) 05:22, 27 July 2011 (UTC)
Not sure what you are saying, but she was indeed called the US Paul Revere. I sailed on her when I was in the Army. Question: How do we find out a ship's roster during a certain time period or the missions?
As a Radioman Seaman on the USS Coral Sea CV43 while drydocked in the Long Beach / San Pedro Shipyards 1975, the USS Paul Revere LPA-248 requested spare Radiomen support for the 2 week Reserve's Summer Cruise. I was one a those selected. During our 2 weeks cruise the "USS Peter Rabbit" LPA-248, as it was nicknamed, spent 4 over-weekend days (mid-cruise) at port in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. Phosphorous sand beaches and a community dance hall was a major attraction for the Reserve Sailors and Marines' liberty.
