- Limitations
- This is a naval history source, not an asbestos survey or material specification. It does not identify asbestos aboard, maintenance materials, the Navy-sale buyer, or the vessel's post-sale history. The live page was discoverable in NHHC search results, but a direct open during this pass returned a 502; the content was available in the search result extraction.
