    Limitations
    The indexed date is attributed to NARA's commissioning-file index; the underlying file was not retrieved. This record establishes the indexed commissioning date and type entry only. It does not establish asbestos content, builder identity, construction/launch dates, propulsion, crew exposure, or later service and disposal history.
