T,UO Soldiers Are Lost
When Great Wave Hits
The Transport Pueblo

Officers on the transport Pueblo
which arrived yesterday from BresI
with 1893 troops, reported that two
soldiers were lost on the morning Of
May 20 when a cumulative wave
washed them of the deck in the Bay
of Biscay.
The men were Corporal Harry S.
Hovey and Private Joseph G. Strong
both of the 142d Infantry, 36th Divi-
sion. Hovey was attached to Company
E and lived in Grand Prairie, Tex
Strong, who served with Company H,
enlisted at Clarendon, Texas.
The Pueblo had been running
through a fairly heavy sea, but not so
strong rs to warrant sending the men
below. Several hundred men were as
sembled on the main deck forward Of
the bridge when the great wall of
water curlcd up suddenly over the
bow. 1t crashed before the soldiers
could run to shelter and bowled sixty
Of them to their knees.
Elovey and Strong were lifted off
their feet, slammed against the rail
and carried into the sea. The Pueblo
