CVL-28 USS Cabot? I'm pretty sure this is the right class but I haven't come up with that picture showing the maintenance. Digging through Navsource.

Not a CVL as far as I'm aware.

Clue wasn't initially intended to be a carrier.

Not a CV either and I'm beginning to wonder if you/Buddahaid actually know about this because I certainly didn't until yesterday.

I'm seriously impeded from any meaningful clue because each and every one would most likely be a giveaway.

Hmm...scrapped before 1950
