"Ticonderoga" had 3 tail markings 1943-45.
From July 1943 (unofficial) a small "V" with number above.
27/1/45---new symbol (called"G"s) an upside-down solid triangle as Stig says (Tech. Letter no.2 CTL-45), numbers below.

27/7/45----single large letter "V" as Roland says, numbers below (some fleet carriers had 2 letters) (Dispatch CTF/F39). In August numbers on fuselage too.
Her Air Groups were CVG7,80,87.
