U.S. Navy Armed Guard logs (also known as officers' reports) are kept by the United States Archives and Records Administration (NARA) at the NARA facility in College Park, Maryland. Records of interest are found in Record Group 24 (Records of the Bureau of Naval Personnel) and Record Group 38 (Records of the Office of the Chief of Naval Operations). You would need to know the dates of interest to you. Contact the National Archives, Modern Military Records Unit, 8601 Adelphi Road, College Park, MD 20740-6001, by telephone at 301-837-3510, or by e-mail at http://www.archives.gov/contact/inquire-form.html#part-b. Archives staff may be able to perform research for you, for a fee, or you could hire a researcher, or you can research in person without charge.
Good luck.
