RIP PVT. John Carlyle Jones

26 Feb 1945
PVT. John Carlyle Jones
1st JASCO 3/25 4TH MARDIV
Died of Wounds and Buried at Sea

Pvt. Jones was Jerry's comrade. 66 years ago today Jones was wounded and evacuated to the beachhead at Iwo Jima by Jerry and fellow Marines.

The story of what happened is a sobering event.
Keep Jones in your prayers tonight and tomorrow at Mass.

" Fair Winds and Following Seas Jonesy. "
