    historical_record
    Finding
    No ship-specific asbestos survey, abatement record, or hazardous-material disclosure for LST-175 was located in the sources reviewed for this pass. The NARA deck-log index was reviewed only as a finding aid; the listed logs were not inspected for asbestos references.

    Limitations
    A bounded research negative, not proof that no records exist or that asbestos was absent. Firecrawl's keyless quota lockout and CourtListener's fleet pacing refusal limited this pass. No asbestos conclusion can be drawn from the absence of a hit in the limited sources reviewed.

    Limitations
    Index listing only. It does not describe individual Coast Guard members aboard, dates of Coast Guard manning, vessel operations, or asbestos. The page's placement under a Coast Guard history site is not itself evidence about this ship's crew history.

    Finding type
    historical_record
    Finding
    NARA's Navy deck-log availability index lists LST-175 deck logs covering 15 July 1943 through 30 June 1945. The index establishes that ship-specific logs are cataloged for this period; the logs themselves were not retrieved or reviewed in this pass.

    Navy deck logs for LST-175
    Limitations
    Finding aid only. It establishes the listed logbook coverage, not the vessel's activities on any particular date, asbestos aboard, or exposure. The date range must not be treated as the ship's full service period.
