To the family and friends -- those of us who worked on the Cyber program for Franklin Military Academy (FMA) knew Dr. Jones as the intellectual giant that introduced the idea of injecting Cyber into Army JROTC programs nationwide, starting with FMA. He inspired us all with his energy and focus on action, not just words. We will truly miss him and sad to lose a friend, mentor, and incredible advocate for growing our future cyber experts here in Richmond. Mike Flanagan, Civilian Aide to the Secretary of the Army (CASA).
