Jim Nicholson

James E. (Jim) Nicholson, MD hails from Dallas, Texas. He was a member of G/3/7 as a BAR operator, Browning Automatic Rifle, a deadly offensive weapon. His nickname was "Nick The BAR man".


One day his daughters found his collection of photographs from his tour in Korea. The questions started with the girls wanting him to annotate the images to be placed in an album.


Jim complied and realized that there was more to the photographs, the stories of his fellow Marines who were in the photographs.


The author: "This is a different kind of war story......". " This story is told as aging warriors would talk among themselves or to their grandchildren--if in fact they talked at all".



The book took shape over years of networking and is comprised of first-person narrative, vignettes and many photographs from his collection.


This book has become sought after by current senior staff of the United States Marine Corps to include the Commandant. The reviews are all stellar and one even draws parallels to Ernie Pyle and Bill Mauldin.


The storytelling is straightforward and riveting. A must read no matter what branch of service.
