[Leica] Jim Nichols is gone

[hlritter at bex.net (Howard L Ritter Jr)]

I?m very sad to read this, as I am sure is every other LUGger. I share his 
interest in aviation and aircraft, and always enjoyed his photos from the 
airfields. He had been an engineer at the Arnold Air Development Center in 
Tullahoma, which my AFROTC summer camp squadron visited in the summer of 
?67. It always amused me to think that he might have been one of the workers 
there who gave us a talk about his area of the engineering center.

Here?s a link 
<https://www.kilgorefuneralhometullahoma.com/obituary/james-nichols> to his 
obit, in which his photography is prominently noted. It also offers a link 
to sending remembrances of Jim.
