Summary

Description
English: Khachadour Paul Garabedian (August 25, 1836 - August 25, 1881) was an United States Navy Sailor of the Union Army and is considered the only Armenian soldier to have served in combat during American Civil War. During the Civil War, he held the rank of officer and served aboard two ships which blockaded against the ports of the Confederacy for the Union. His first task was to go along the Atlantic Coast and reach the Gulf of Mexico. In 1865 he was discharged from the Navy and settled in Philadelphia as is believed to be the first Armenian of the city.
