“USS Valley Forge (CV-45): Crewmen use flight deck...:

“USS Valley Forge (CV-45): Crewmen use flight deck tractors with power brooms to sweep snow from the carrier’s flight deck, during operations off Korea, circa early 1951. Photo is dated 8 May 1951, but Valley Forge ended her second Korean War deployment in late March of that year. Plane parked in the foreground is a F4U-4 “Corsair” fighter. Those on the forward flight deck are an AD “Skyraider” attack plane and a HO3S helicopter. (Official U.S. Navy Photograph, National Archives.)”
