ANOTHER VIET NAM CASUALTY IN OUR CLASS
In working on some class members' names and addresses I discovered that we have JAMES RALPH WATERS in our list of deceased members, but didn't realize until I looked at my database that he apparently died of the effects of Agent Orange exposure in Viet Nam. I found the following information about him; if you have anything to add please let me know:
James Ralph Waters, SFC US ARMY, Viet Nam
Birth 31 Jan 1947
Death 29 Oct 2004
Began service 31 Jan 1966
He was interred at Jefferson Barracks National Cemetery 5 Nov 2004
Section IV, site 1671
James lived in 1989 and around that time just down Alsobrook in Kirkwood from where he lived during our senior year at KHS, obviously close to family or at least to where he had lived as a child. By 1996 he was living in Wentzville.
James deserves our respect and gratitude just as those who have died in combat or from other aspects of warfare, as well as do our wounded servicemen who survived. THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE
