More Allies by Her Side

Maternity Week

By the time they reached Midway Atoll, the Grayback and the Shad had another ally – the U.S.S. Cero. The threesome were subbed as the “wolfpack.” They combined forces for a great attack. They had proven to be extremely successful, especially when they were used by German U-boats. This had been the first time the tactic was employed, and everyone was glad they did. Between them, the three subs were able to sink a total of 38,000 tons of Japanese shipping and had damaged a total of 3,300 tons. Having used up all their torpedoes, the trio then turned back to Midway Atoll. They arrived on November 10, 1943. And this legendary mission, Moore became the second of the Grayback’s skippers to garner a Navy Cross.
