Marines I Mar Div. Korean PH

Jerry Stuart graduated from the U.S. Naval Academy in 1951. He was a champion fencer (foil), an admired dancer (often compared to Fred Astaire), a beloved son, brother, and friend to his Naval Academy classmates.
Jerry "Jake" Stuart was killed instantly by shrapnel from a land mine while a young Lieutenant on patrol in Korea. A heart-wrenching loss to all who loved him.
He was a dedicated Marine like his father, Lieutenant General James A. Stuart of the Bougainville Campaign of WWII.
He was the Uncle that I never knew, but proudly carry his name.
