Note: Edward Vincent Dockweiler (1901-1961) was the son of Isidore B. Dockweiler and Gertrude Reeve Dockweiler. Edward Dockweiler had a distinguished career in the United States Navy. Eleventh in his graduating class at the Naval Academy in 1924, he was a naval engineer, and later he earned a master's degree in engineering at MIT. In 1941, he was posted to the Philippines before the U.S. entry into World War II. After the Japanese conquest of the Philippines, he led a guerilla band on the island of Negros, but eventually surrendered to the Japanese, resulting in his imprisonment in POW camps in the Philippines and Japan. Edward Dockweiler held the rank of senior POW officer in the camps in Japan. He was later awarded the Bronze Star and Distinguished Service Medal for his heroic conduct as a prisoner of war. Edward Dockweiler gained the rank of rear admiral, and at the time of his death, he was chief engineer of the Los Angeles Harbor.
