Paul King, son of Edward King, is reported missing in action and becomes Frederick’s first locally listed colored casualty.

He was born near Williamsport and entered service in January 1933, with service across Africa, Sicily, and Italy. His last letter, dated September 20, says he was well and things were going smoothly. He is survived by his parents Mr. and Mrs. Clamence Muiteneits of 8 Waters Street, a brother Ronney, and three sisters Sliss Edna Huntzberry and Tillie Huntzberry at home and Mrs. Swifts, employed in Fort Meade. King, reported missing in Italy, is the son of Edward King of 110 East Street. His father indicated the last letter arrived about six weeks ago. A final note mentions a local anecdote about swallows and whippoor-wills.
