You guys are confusing canon with some of the Great Matt W's posts.
Canon RDF sourcebook has the assault carrier Belleau Wood LHA 3 functional as part of TF 76.
The Great Matt W posted an RDF orbat previously, I couldn't find it, but I found this in the archives.

"The carrier immobilized at Muscat, Oman is USS Independence (CV-62) with both torpedo damage and ASM damage. If a shipyard with supertanker size dry-dock was available, it would take 18 months of repairs to get her seaworthy. A caretaker crew is aboard, but most have been reassigned to other 5th FLT ships in the Gulf. "
