Subject: The haunting account of James B. Jones

Just read the haunting account of James B. Jones [http://www.war-stories.com/t_jbj-dn-poss-1966-1.asp], who died in 1966, the year I graduated from high school. I am a newspaper reporter and yesterday spoke to a Marine veteran suffering with PTSD. I noticed Jones was from Alexandria Bay, N.Y. When I was in the Army Reserves and posted to Camp Drum in Watertown in the early 1970s for summer training, a group of us made excursions to Alexandria Bay to drink and meet girls. It never crossed my mind that in that lovely setting resided a family which lost so much in the war. God bless them. God bless us all.
