     Navy sometimes used CVs to transport Army birds to remote locations.
They generally didn't operate off them except for a one time launch.

Just curious, is it a big deal? :lol

I'd understand if you could launch like Me 262s off a carrier or some other plane that will actually MAKE  difference furballing. (Unless of course, I'm in the P-39 :P)

Goto Google and type in "French military victories", then hit "I'm feeling lucky".
Here lie these men on this sun scoured atoll,
The wind for their watcher, the wave for their shroud,
Where palm and pandanus shall whisper forever,
A requiem fitting for heroes
