The second image is of the escort carrier USS Nehenta Bay, a Casablanca class carrier launched 11/28/43. The same image, rotated slightly, is displayed on this page

. Escort carriers were used extensively in the later stages of the Pacific war, and the Nehenta Bay participated in several campaigns, culiminating in attacks on Okinawa and the Japanese Home Islands. She was decommissioned after the war and scrapped in 1960.
