USS Wolverine (IX-64) underway
a paddle-wheeled aircraft carrier.

There were two, USS Wolverine and USS Sable. Both served on the Great Lakes during WWII. (That in itself is a bit of an oddity)
Used for take-off and landing training only. No hangar deck. Doing this on the Great Lakes gave an opportinity to train under blue-water like conditions, with no submarine threat.
