USSVI’s Lehigh Valley Base is restoring a MK-14 Torpedo Memorial that was originally built in 1985 by the Lehigh Valley Chapter of World War II Submarine Veterans. The memorial was on the grounds of the Naval Reserve Center and was dismantled by the US Navy in 2023 when the Naval Reserve Center was closed.
The Lehigh Valley Base of USSVI has since obtained possession of the MK-14 Torpedo to restore it and rebuild the memorial in a new location. The memorial will be rebuilt at VFW Post 7293 in Whitehall, PA. Estimated cost for the memorial project is $20,000.00
