According to this source, under fleet service highlights, there was a 5 year gap between when they were first delivered to the Navy and the first carrier deployment.
So ~1800 days when it would’ve been pretty hard for them to lose one. Though I’m sure they managed to do it anyway.
Why do they have a 4 digit counter?
That seems like overprovisioning.

Thanks for the useful information.
That was my attempt at trash-talking.
So, what was the counter for that batch, 1805?
Probably. Likely the only time the fourth digit counter would’ve spun off 0.
