In re: my mention of the BUNKER HILL – the DANFS entry says her damage
was 11 May, not 11 April.

Thanks also to John Forester for pointing out that at least one of the
CVE’s, OMMANEY BAY also had notable losses to personnel in ready rooms –
I am fairly certain that the main example cited is BUNKER HILL, though,
with over 300 personnel killed.

Presumably the USN moved the ready rooms back up to the gallery deck
(the deck under the flight deck and above the hanger) in FORESTAL et
seq. because (1) the flight deck was now essentially armored and
(2) it was not convenient to design escalators in….
