Biography
James wrote lots of letters home. Near the end of his tour of duty he wrote a letter to his brother which stated, ‘Dear Danny: I owe everybody a letter, so when you are done with it, send it to Blanche and have her send it to Ethel. Ethel can send it to Mack, Mack can send it to Annie Green. Annie Green can send it to Mom and Mom can share it with Verna, Russell, Tom and Mary Etta. Love and kisses, Jim’
