“Jimmy” Havron was my first husband, Jim McCord’s cousin, the son of Jim’s Aunt Maggie. Jim said that he joined the Marines because his cousin Jimmy had come home on leave wearing his uniform and all gung-ho over being a Marine. I don’t know where Jimmie served in the Pacific, but Jim was wounded in the battle for Iwo Jima, and served in the clean-up of Guam. For a while Jimmie lived with his mother, Maggie, in a little apartment adjoining Jim’s mother Laura’s home. The two Jim’s always enjoyed getting together.
