'' Strathadam '' was sold to Uruguayan interests in 1947 before ending up in the hands of the nascent Israeli Navy in 1950 . She was renamed '' Misgav '' and given the new pennant number K-30 . In August 1953 , while making her way back from naval exercises in the Mediterranean Sea with the rest of the Israeli fleet , a series of emergency distress calls were received from the Greek islands after the Ionian earthquake had hit the region . The fleet requested permission from headquarters and were ordered to provide aid . The crew of '' Misgav '' aided the inhabitants of Kefalonia in recovering from the disaster . She was discarded by the Israeli Navy
