The tombstone photos supplied by Daddezio: the plain one with the Holy Mother on it is the headstone and the smaller military stone is a foot stone.
Jim enlisted in the Army. He was a Reconnaissance Specialist and part of Mackenzie's Raiders (Division Reconnaissance). He died outright from artillery, rocket or mortar in South Vietnam. ***There is discrepancy here as some reports have him missing, and captured with Corporal Robert Hunt.
