AUTHOR'S NOTE: I'm again posting my Veterans Day Salutes to my family.
James Benford Poore, a native of Mississippi, served as a landsman (that's what the "LDS" on his grave marker means) in the U.S. Navy during World War I. A landsman was a new recruit with less than three years of experience
James was the son of John Franklin Poore, who served in the 13th Mississippi Infantry Regiment during the Civil War.
James is buried in Prescott National Cemetery, Prescott, Yavapai County, Arizona.
