    Study period
    1944-01-29 to 1944-04-06 (logbook item dates only)
    Limitations
    The table identifies logbook coverage dates; it is not a service chronology and does not establish Jade's commission, decommission, custody, or operational status on those dates. It contains no asbestos information.

    Limitations
    This is a bounded search result, not proof that no such record exists. NHHC DANFS and photo pages returned HTTP 404 during live checks; Firecrawl search and scrape were quota-locked; NARA Special List #44 is a logbook finding aid, not an asbestos record. No class- or era-based exposure inference is made.
