In April 1943, Edward Vallar, born 9 August 1911 in St. Louis, Missouri, residing at 7238 West Park Avenue, St. Louis, is listed among the survivors of the SS Nathaniel Greene brought into New York on the John Hawthorn which had sailed from Oran.
“On 24/2/43 U-565 torpedoed and damaged the SS Nathaniel Greene 40 miles NE of Oran{Algeria}This vessel was later hit by an aerial torpedo, she was towed into harbour but declared to be a total loss.”
“During a long voyage to North Russia, SS Nathaniel Greene was under incessant and violent attack by enemy planes and submarines. In most gallant fashion, and in spite of many crew casualties, she consistently out-maneuvered and out-fought the enemy, finally discharging her vital cargo at the designated port. After effecting temporary repairs to her battered hull and rigging, she took part in the North African Campaign. Bound for her last port, with limited cargo, she was torpedoed, and in a sinking condition was successfully beached.”
