The Steel Traveler was a 7,000 gross ton cargo ship owned by U.S. Steel. She was built at Federal Shipbuilding in Kearney, New Jersey and launched on Oct. 17, 1922. On Dec. 17, 1944 the ship was en route from Antwerp to England in convoy ATM-16, but soon after leaving the Scheldt River and entering the North Sea she struck a mine and went down. I don't have any details about the sinking or who rescued the survivors, sadly two crewmen were lost in the sinking. News of her loss was not released by the navy until Feb. 17, 1945 and even then the public was told she went down in the Atlantic.
