Jere and Family,
I just today learned of General Jones' passing. I was his last aide-de-camp. He was the best boss I ever had. What a great man Davy was! He lived life to the fullest. My family was truly blessed by knowing and working with General Jones and Anita. The world is truly a better place because of the life of General Jones and all he did.

Jananine and Family, we are so very sorry for your loss, despite the long, full and illustrious life Davey had. By all accounts he was truly my dad's hero and we feel very honored and privileged to have known him and called him our friend. He meant so much to our family and especially my dad and we know without a doubt they are together, having a martini and toasting to the undeniable greatness they both shared. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

My sympathies to the family. I never had the honor of meeting him, but know of him through numerous publications, especially those about the Doolittle raid . We owe our freedom to heroes such as General Jones. Rest in peace, brave patriot.

General Jones, may the God of Our Fathers ensure your eternal peace. You were an inspiration to all during the dark days of Stalag Luft III. A fellow Kriegy.

For the Family of Major General David Jones: I met General Jones and family when they lived in Alexandria, VA on Gresham Pl. Gen and Mrs Jones attended my commissioning party as an Army 2d LT on 25 Sep 1966.
I next saw Gen and Mrs Jones after my retirement at Hill AFB, UT while attending the annual Doolittle Raiders Reunion.
He was a great, courageous aviator, hero and person. God bless and welcome him home. Very Respectfully, Russell LeBarron. Col, USA Ret.

So long Sir Knight. My father flew '51s at the same time. I feel a deep connection and sense of gratitude toward all service personnel, but particularly to those of that era who gave this country so much. MG Jones' passing will not go unnoticed by this American.
