Finding
DANFS establishes identity and service record: Acubens (AKS-5), namesake the brightest star in Cancer, was laid down under a Maritime Commission contract (MCE hull 1935) 1943-11-25 by Delta Shipbuilding Co., New Orleans; launched 1944-01-08, sponsored by Mrs. J. A. Farrington; acquired by the Navy 1944-02-09; converted for naval service by Todd-Johnson Drydocks, Inc., New Orleans; commissioned 1944-07-15, Comdr. Edward B. Ellis in command. Service: shakedown out of Norfolk and a short run to New York City; sailed for the Panama Canal 1944-09-08; Hollandia, New Guinea 1944-10-25 to 11-10 issuing stores to Task Force 76; ammunition load to Brisbane, Australia; departed Australia 12-13 bound for the Philippines, reached Leyte 12-21; Philippines-based for the rest of the war, loading stores at Milne Bay and provisions at Manus then distributing in the Philippines; departed the Philippines 1945-11-25 via Pearl Harbor; arrived San Francisco 12-22; underway 1946-01-18 to return to Pearl Harbor; decommissioned 1946-03-11; struck from the Navy list 1947-07-17; transferred to the Maritime Commission for disposal.

Mirrored excerpt, engine-cylinder insulation section

Finding type
asbestos_application

Finding
The U.S. Maritime Commission instruction manual for the EC2-S-C1 plant - the verified design of this hull (MARAD type record + SDB machinery row) - describes cylinder insulation of magnesia under sheet-iron lagging; insulation products of this era were commonly manufactured with asbestos fiber, and period steam-system gaskets, packing, and insulation felts commonly contained asbestos. Liberty-type hulls were built to emergency USMC specifications during the period when the federal government had reserved asbestos supply for shipbuilding.

Limitations
Class/design documentation, not a hull record - the manual names the type, not this vessel, and does not itself state 'asbestos' content (magnesia lagging of the era was typically asbestos-fiber-reinforced, but the manual text is silent on fiber). The AKS conversion's added 'tween decks and Navy outfit are not covered by this document. Asbestos presence aboard this hull is design/era inference, not ship-proven. Does not establish quantity, condition, present-day presence (ship scrapped 1965), individual exposure, or causation.

Marcel v. Delta Shipbuilding Co. (La.

The appeal decided only a procedural question - whether a direct action could proceed against Continental as the dissolved corporation's former insurer (the trial court's no-right-of-action dismissal was reversed on that ground). Two further CourtListener hits under 'Delta Shipbuilding' + asbestos (Blow v. OneBeacon America Ins. Co., La. App. 2016; Mentz Constr. v. Poche, La. App. 2012) were not text-verified.

Names no vessel. CourtListener's stored opinion text for both records (10610319, 10610320) returned mismatched unrelated text - the row rests on the search-index caption plus mirror text.
