TRIBUTES  

To my Uncle Jim  

Uncle Jim,

I never got to know you, but your courage has been a shining beacon to guide me through my life. Grandma always kept your flag and medals right next to the door right up until the day she died. God bless you Uncle Jim.

Love your nephew,

Jim Gerrick

One of your brother's boys

I was only 10 when you left us. By the time I could enlist at 17, they were not sending guys over. My only regret of the past is I did not follow in your footsteps and become a door gunner.

Shotgun X    

James was a volunteer from the 25th Div. to serve as a right doorgunner on a huey. He was on the tenth group of volunteers. I was with Shotgun IX. I will remember.
