James A. Jones, IV
Class of 1979
Navy, 20+ Years
I served 13 years in the NAVY, immediately after high school. My daughter was on the way, so I turned down a football scholarship to ECSU to provide for my family. I have no regrets. We were able to live in Puerto Rico for five years, thanks to the Navy. I later did 8 years in the ARMY. Between the two, I saw and did a lot; more than most could in a lifetime.
