Attacked Guadalcanal in early August of 1942, North Carolina was the only U. Battleship available to provide protection for the carriers Wasp CV-7, Saratoga CV-3 and Enterprise CV-6.

After that battle it would not be uncommon for fast battleship to screen aircraft carriers due to their massive anti-aircraft batteries.
