From the "Howitzer" - 1969

"James Bryan Newman [IV], Nashville, Tennessee. B-1

"JB's, the fourth in his line to endure the -- Joy?? -- of our rockbound, highland home, came to us with a '24 hour' sense of humor. Most of his time was spent in brownboy defilade, no doubt in preparation for his armor career. Whether in building a model corvette, hitch hiking across Europe, or in boning up on SS electives, Jim's enthusiasm and resourcefulness were unbeatable. Individuality, his quick wit and a burning desire to succeed have marked Jim's cadet life and are sure to bring him success in the future.
