It's hard to believe that Jim has been gone for 10 years. Jim, Mike Sullivan and myself spent many hours playing monopoly, it was just our way of passing the time in Vietnam. Jim was a talented radio announcer and truly a good friend. It is strange that earlier this week I wife asked me specifically about Jim when we were discussing the 50th anniversary of our troops leaving Vietnam. Jim Amross will forever be remembered as a good friend and I'm glad I had an opportunity to meet him in the times we shared together in Saigon

Jim and I over-lapped careers at NMU, WDMJ-AM/FM, Marquette, MI; and in the American Forces Radio & Television Service (AFRTS).

He was in Vietnam (see photo); I was in the Land of the Mid-Night Sun, Alaska.

Always so up-beat. He loved his family, his country and enjoyed life. Jim, I'm just signing off (for now).

I worked with Jim at WDMJ in the late 60's. It was a pleasure to work with him. My condolences to the family.

I met Jim at the Oakland Army Depot on the way to Vietnam. We became fast friends and agreed to try to look out for each other if we met again in S.E. Asia. Turns out we ended up bunkmates for the year in Saigon at AFVN. Jim's companionship made those long days a lot shorter for me. Gary Brill mentioned our Monopoly games – we actually wore the game out and had to have another sent over! Boardwalk with four hotels and Free Parking to you friend… and a free Black Label from the Amsul Foundation refridgerator. [email protected]

Jim and I were close friends at AFVN Radio Network in Saigon, Vietnam. Jim was the ultimate radio professional and loved the business as much as I. He will be deeply missed by his many military radio friends. Rest in Peace my friend. Tom Watson Los Angeles. [email protected].
