I'm not sure who, if anyone, will receive this message, but I feel compelled to write this note. My grandpa, James C. Muldrow, was killed in a car accident on February 1, 2003. 2 weeks later his wife and my grandma, Priscilla Muldrow, passed away due to the extensive injuries she sustained in the same car accident. Outside of my mom, my grandparents were the most important people in my life and still, more than 7 years after losing them, I still think of them daily and miss them more than words can express. I was sitting here at home alone enjoying this beautiful day and found myself thinking of them as I often do. So, I simply searched the internet using my grandpa's name and found just a couple of relevant sites, including www.armed-guard.com/lvc.html. Anyway...my point: I just want to thank "you" for putting my grandpa's story on your site, but also for letting it remain there. It is such an incredible feeling to see this information still available to the public even after his death. Again, thank you so much...

Dear Lauren,
Thank you for your kind message. The whole point of the Armed Guard website is to remember the courage, service and sacrifice of the men of the Armed Guard. As long as there is an Armed Guard website, your grandfather will be remembered.
If you ever have a chance, you might want to drive to Tampa and visit SS AMERICAN VICTORY, a World War II-era ship on which the Armed Guard served, and get a sense of what his wartime experiences may have been. See http://americanvictory.org/.
