Background:

In July, 2008 the family of Terrance Lee Schram (09-12-1955) approached the Sturgeon Bay Police Department asking for assistance in locating their son, Terrance. Although Terrance is not actually missing from Sturgeon Bay, we agreed to help because of the unusual circumstances of this case. Terry's last conversation with his family was by phone, in late 1981. At that time Terry was AWOL (Absent without leave) from the U.S. Navy, he had been declared a deserter. To achieve desertion status you have to be AWOL, for a period greater than 30 days. Terry told his family during the call that he was in Florida, and that he was thinking of turning himself into the Navy. This was the last time Terry has been heard from. His family does not know where he was in Florida when he called, therefore they have been unable to generate any interest by Florida authorities because they have no known location where he last was. At the time of his disappearance, Terry was a crew member on the U.S.S. Saratoga out of Philadelphia, PA. How he traveled to Florida is not known. Terry has been entered into NCIC as an Endangered Missing Adult.

Anyone with information concerning this case is asked to contact Lt. Thomas J. Baudhuin at the Sturgeon Bay Police Department at (920) 746-2459.  Additional information concerning Terrance Lee Schram can be found at the website for the National Center for Missing Adults [National Center For Missing Adults] and at our website www.sturgeonbaypolice.com  As always with any investigation you may use the Confidential Web Tip Form to submit any information you might have[Confidential Web Tip Form].
