Synopsis "Kildary: The Incredible Story of a Man of War"
This is the incredible story of a little ship that would not quit - against all odds. Ordered by the us navy and built by the Pullman standard car corporation at Chicago, Illinois, in 1942 as an escourt/small frigate/submarine chaser and launched as uss pce 831. She was well armed, fast and with a total complement of 100. Under the lend/lease agreement she was transferred to the royal navy and renamed hms kildary. Handed back to the USN in 1947 she was later phased out and eventually purchased by the Portuguese, renamed Rio Vuga and converted to a reefer, operating as a mother and support ship to the fishing and tuna industry.
