Biography

Ron Krom began actually serving a thirty-day jail sentence immediately after a November 9, 1983 hearing concerning the October 15 USS Henry Jackson commissioning protest at Electric Boat in Groton, Connecticut. The Nuclear Resister individually names all four men, reports no-contest pleas, and supplies their Montville Correctional Center address. The projected December 8 endpoint is not recorded as an actual discharge, and thirty days imposed is not assumed to be thirty days completed. The article and support address print Ron Krom; the same issue’s directory prints Ron Krum. That internal spelling variation is preserved as a source limitation, not silently expanded into an independently verified alias. The December 16, 1983 prisoner directory explicitly lists this person as recently released, affirming actual discharge in 1983 but not its day. The earlier December 8 anticipated release is not promoted to an actual day, and thirty days imposed is not asserted as an exact completed total. The original article and support address say Ron Krom while both directories print Ron Krum; the spelling discrepancy is preserved, not expanded into a separately verified alias or a second person.
