Billy  Pettross pettross@cox.net none The James Davis I knew The James Davis I Knew
I first met James Davis when we were in school at Tennessee Tech. During the short time that I had the honor of knowing James we became very close friends. James was an avid fisherman and we spent many hours together on the Dale Hollow lake near his home in Livingston. He was a quite and unassuming person.
I met James’ mother at their home in Livingston. She was a wonderful person. I recall that once she fixed a steak dinner for us after one of our fishing trips. I was aware that James dropped out of college and joined the army because I recall trying to persuade him to stay in college. The last time I saw James was once after he joined the army he came back to the Tech campus while on leave. I never saw him after that.
The next time I heard anything about James was an article in the Orange County Register in California about a James Davis from Livingston, TN who was the first soldier killed in action in Vietnam. I found that it was the same James Davis I knew in college. It saddened me then and it still saddens me today that this young man had to give his life for our country. He was a good friend.

Robert Blaze I'am to young, to have met Mr. Davis. I'am in no way related, to him, nor do I know, his family. What I do know, is that he should, be remembered and honored. He did his duty, in a far away, land and was killed, in service, to his country. I thank him, for his service. He made, the ultimate sacrifice. God bless him and his family. Dec 22, 2007 |

Bill Carey historybill@usa.com Fellow Tennessean http://www.tnhistoryforkids.org/people/james_davis As the founder and creator of a web site, that teaches Tennessee history, to kids, I can assure you, that I'am doing everything I can, to see that the name James Davis, (first American killed, in the Vietnam War) is put into the curriculum. It disgusts me, that there are 33, state historic markers, to Nathan Bedford Forrest and zero, for Davis and I'm going, to change that also. Nov 30, 2006 |
