- Finding
- NHHC DANFS lists SC-649 as built by Delaware Bay Shipbuilding Co. at Leesburg, New Jersey; keel laid 1941-10-16; launched 1942-04-18; commissioned 1942-07-31; and transferred to France on 1944-06-15. This per-hull entry corrects the working premise that only range-level evidence was located. The original NHHC URL returned HTTP 404 on 2026-10-03; the cited URL is an archived 2022 capture of the NHHC page.

- Limitations
- The cited content is an archived NHHC page because the current NHHC URL returned 404 when checked on 2026-10-03. It records basic construction and disposition milestones only; it does not establish later French service, individual exposure, or asbestos presence. The entry names no separate personal ship name.

- Finding type
- historical_record
- Finding
- NHHC DANFS class grouping includes hull numbers 628-775 in the SC-497 Class. SC-649 falls within this listed block. The class-level reference describes a 100-foot overall length, 17-foot extreme beam, 6-foot-6-inch maximum draft, 148-ton full-load displacement, diesel engines, and two screws; these are class characteristics, not independently verified SC-649 specifications.

- Limitations
- Class characteristics are background only. The entry gives alternative engine ratings across class production and does not establish which machinery, dimensions, material inventory, or asbestos-containing products were installed aboard SC-649. No asbestos inference is drawn from class membership, construction era, or diesel propulsion.
