- Limitations
- The live digital copy is hosted by a non-government site; the document is a U.S. Navy reference table. The builder attribution follows the table's ditto notation and conflicts with the NavSource page's Commercial Iron Works attribution; the Navy table is used provisionally and the conflict remains open. No asbestos or material condition information.

- Study period
- 1944-1949 (heading period only)
- Limitations
- NavSource is a compiled secondary reference, not an official Navy record. Its later training and decommissioning dates are not relied on; the page is used only as an alias lead because this same-hull designation was supplied in the batch scope. It contains no asbestos information.
