"Jimbo" was a hell of a soldier. I was fortunate to correspond with him when he was in the 82nd. He contacted me because I was on the same team in Vietnam as his father, albeit at different times. I met both of them at the SFA reunion in 2002. I pray for him, his family and his friends.

A funeral mass was held at St. Matthews Cathedral in Washington, D.C. at noon today for Jim or as some of us called him Jimbo. After the service, which was attended by BG Muholland (spelling?), a CSM, a CWO5, with about 60 SF troops in uniform, we were bussed to Arlington National Cemetery. I estimate that the number of SF doubled by then. General Brown was the ranking officer. There were a lot of tears shed and dewy eyes out there. I was unable to speak with Jim's dad or mom or Anne, Jim's wife because of the crowd and they left before those in attendance. My Dai Uy & I spoke with Rob, Jim's brother and expressed our deep condolences. Jim's dad (Bob Sr.) was the XO at A-411. He came 4 days after I was medevaced. As upsetting as this was to all, this is the first time I've been to Arlington for a very recent KIA. The rows and rows of graves beyond Jim's grave are filled with young men who were KIA in OEF or OIF. It was something my wife noticed and mentioned later. I'm not the only father with a son in Iraq, but it made the day even more somber.
