i am very puzzled. how could Crum be awol after being paroled and severely injured. were they supposed to come back to duty with that kind of injury?. where would he have reported back to? he is looked upon around Benton County, MS as a hero and warrior. where did your last article come from and is it totally accurate?. i am far away from Jackson, Ms and can never get down there to look up the widows' applications. i hoped it might be online. Can you think of any other avenue to explore on the James W. Kirk death. i cant find it anywhere. is this something everyone has problems with?
