- Limitations
- The archival finding aid gives dates but does not provide a crew count, service narrative, asbestos information, or prove exposure. This record uses the listed dates as the ship’s commission and decommission dates, consistent with the Navy ship-history entry surfaced during search, whose live page returned 404 and was not cited.

- Limitations
- This is a bounded research result, not proof that no asbestos documentation exists or that the vessel was asbestos-free. Firecrawl was unavailable because its keyless quota was exhausted; the NHHC DANFS URL returned 404; the NPS report host returned HTTP 403; and CourtListener was throttled during the required litigation sweep.
