P.S. BTW, is he a relation?

No, I knew his history from my time in the service at FT Campbell in the 60's. The post theater is named the Mann Theater and everyone knows its history and what it represents. There use to be a ceremony that you were required to attend at the Mann Theater when you were assigned to 101st.

Just wondered, the first and middle initials J.E., that's all. So, your son is second generation Screaming Eagles, now that IS tradition! PFC Mann was extraordinary. Thank you for your service. It is an honor. :)
