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.
