U.S.N. Armed Guard World War II Veterans Association

The U.S.N. Armed Guard World War II Veterans Association is the official organization of U.S. Navy Armed Guard veterans. PLEASE NOTE With the passing of CA Lloyd in November 2021, no new activity has taken place with the exception of Armed Guard Veteran Clarence “Korky” Korker in Florida taking up the effort. All mailing lists are lost and I do not have any of CA’s information. I would like to keep the Veterans Association alive and hope that AG Veteran family members will help to contribute to keeping their memory alive by contributing to this site. Regards, Craig Staley Armed Guard veterans and family members are invited to contribute tothe U.S.N. Armed Guard World War II Veterans Association via this web site, and veterans and their families are encouraged to contact the web master for other information and publications about the Armed Guard. The Association endorses, encourages and contributes to the Armed Guard website but does not own, control, fund or maintain the website.
