James Ewell Echols

West Point, 1965

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by Ed Armstrong on April 25, 2001:

Jim was my room mate yearling year when I introduced him to his wife-to-be, Smokey. He saved my career on AOD in Berlin because he could speak fluent German and I got in a little trouble that appreciated fluent German. He taught me a lot about patience. He was a gentleman and a great friend. I miss him.
