Avoid multi forEach loop in JSTL in JSP

Question

I want to avoid multi loop in JSTL which is shown by the code presented below. I got attributes WRTSC, DTA, DTA_PRZEDST_TR_OSW from api response and they are passing randomly so that is why the code looks like this.

<c:forEach items="${ctx.model.customerAttributes}" var="customerAttribute">
<tr>
    <td class="code">${customerAttribute.subGroupName}</td>
    <td class="value">
        <c:forEach items="${customerAttribute.attributes}" var="attribute">
            ${attribute.attrName == 'WRTSC' ? attribute.attrValue : ''}
        </c:forEach>
    </td>
    <td class="value">
        <c:forEach items="${customerAttribute.attributes}" var="attribute">
            ${attribute.attrName == 'DTA' ? attribute.attrValue : ''}
        </c:forEach>
    </td>
    <td class="value">
        <c:forEach items="${customerAttribute.attributes}" var="attribute">
            ${attribute.attrName == 'DTA_PRZEDST_TR_OSW' ? attribute.attrValue : ''}
        </c:forEach>
    </td>
</tr>
</c:forEach>

I need to read every attribute (if there is not attribute sent I need to create empty <td></td> block.

Can it be done in one loop instead of three (in this case this number respresents the number of different attributes).

Thanks for helping.

I've got something like this now. Guys, do you think this is better?

<c:forEach items="${ctx.model.customerAttributes}" var="customerAttribute">
<tr>
    <c:set var="WRTSC" value="" />
    <c:set var="DTA" value="" />
    <c:set var="DTA_PRZEDST_TR_OSW" value="" />

    <c:forEach items="${customerAttribute.attributes}" var="attribute">
        <c:if test="${WRTSC eq ''}">
            <c:set var="WRTSC" value="${attribute.attrName == 'WRTSC' ? attribute.attrValue : ''}" />
        </c:if>
        <c:if test="${DTA eq ''}">
            <c:set var="DTA" value="${attribute.attrName == 'DTA' ? attribute.attrValue : ''}" />
        </c:if>
        <c:if test="${DTA_PRZEDST_TR_OSW eq ''}">
            <c:set var="DTA_PRZEDST_TR_OSW" value="${attribute.attrName == 'DTA_PRZEDST_TR_OSW' ? attribute.attrValue : ''}" />
        </c:if>
    </c:forEach>

    <td class="code">${customerAttribute.subGroupName}</td>
    <td class="value">${WRTSC}</td>
    <td class="value">${DTA}</td>
    <td class="value">${DTA_PRZEDST_TR_OSW}</td>
</tr>
</c:forEach>
