A member of the Mullane family recently contacted me through the website contact page. Danny and Frank Mullane were brothers serving on STRONG together. Frank was one of the survivors, and Danny was not. Danny was with the group of young men who landed on Arundel Island and responsible for saving the life of Lt. Hugh Barr Miller, Jr. Their nephew Bob has shared photographs and letters with me. More notably though, is a piece of 8 mm family film showing the Mullane boys and five other STRONG sailors at the Mullane home just prior to shipping out in December of 1942. I have no way of knowing who these young men are, but I took some screen captures from the DVD. The quality is sketchy at best, however if any of you recognize any one of these men, please notify me with an ID. It would be amazing to put a name to one of these laughing, smiling handsome faces, in addition to Danny and Frank.
