| Milit Svce | bt 1942 - 1945 | Monte Boyd Cottrell served in the United States Navy bt 1942 - 1945. He was a Gunner's Mate 2/c in the Armed Guard. The role of the Armed Guard was to man the guns on the thousands of Merchant Marine ships bringing men and materiel to the various war zones -- troop ships, cargo ships, tankers and more. When the convoys came under fire, as they so often did, the difference between life and death was often the Armed Guards. According to the Armed Guard website, "By war's end, 144,970 men had served with the Armed Guard. A document in the archives of the Naval Historical Center in Washington, D.C. calls the story of the Armed Guard "as thrilling a story of triumph over difficulties, of heroism, devotion to duty, sacrifice, and courage as exists in the annals of the nation."" Roughly 2085 Armed Guardsmen died; at least 1100 were wounded. Monte served on, among other ships, tankers including the SS Good Gulf and SS Esso Hartford. The Good Gulf, a Gulf Oil Co. tanker, was 498' long, 59' wide and drew 33' in depth. Interestingly, she was built in Kiel, Germany and launched in June of 1938. The Esso Hartford was an Esso tanker, custom built (rather than to standard specs) in Maryland by Bethlehem Steel, and launched in 1942. Family stories tell of at least two ships he served on that were sunk. One was the MS Sheherazade, a tanker under Panamanian registry in the summer of 1942. According to one report by the Armed Guard, the Sheherazade "was torpedoed by the German U-158 (Erich Rostin) on June 11, 1942 at 0455 EWT in position 28-41 N./91-20 W. (about 20 miles west of Ship Shoal Buoy) while en route from Newport News to Houston in ballast and unescorted. Total complement on board was 44 merchant crew and 15 U.S. Naval Armed Guard. One crew member, the 2nd Cook, was lost. He was a Canadian citizen. All others survived. At 0455 EWT, one torpedo struck on the starboard side amidship. Following that another torpedo struck in the starboard bunker tank destroying all power facilities and stopping the engines. As a result of these two torpedoes the ship took a 45° list to starboard. At 0505 EWT, a third torpedo hit the ship in the engine room on the starboard side. Immediately after this, the ship capsized with the bottom up. After the tanker had capsized, the U-158 fired 8 rounds from her deck gun into the hull of the ship. The ship was abandoned at 0503. The MIDSHIPMAN, a shrimp boat, picked up 26 survivors from the ship's launch and 9 others who had jumped overboard. These 35 survivors were landed at Morgan City, Louisiana on June 11th at 2300 EWT. A lifeboat containing 23 survivors was picked up by the F/V 40 FATHOMS on June 11, 1942 at 0830 and landed at Morgan City at 1640 on the same day. The U-158 (Rostin) was sunk on June 30, 1942 west of Bermuda in position 32-50 N./67-28 W. by U.S. Navy plane VP-74. There were no survivors." |
