Shown here is the reverse of an official U.S. Navy photograph record card identifying the subject vessel as USS Petrof Bay (CVE-80) and dated 26 October 1944 — the day after the carrier's participation in the Battle off Samar as part of the escort carrier group known as Taffy 3. Stamped 'Confidential' and marked for internal use by the Bureau of Aeronautics, such cards accompanied official Navy photographs to record cataloging information, though the front image originally paired with this card is not present here.
