DADEVILLE, Ala. — A 19-year-old soldier from Dadeville who recently arrived in Iraq was killed by a roadside bomb, his family said July 18.
Pfc. James Jacob Harrelson, who was known to friends and family as “Spanky,” was killed by an IED July 17 while driving a Humvee in a convoy as part of the Army’s 1st Infantry Battalion, his parents said. They said they were not told where in Iraq their son was killed.
Harrelson’s family said anyone who met him instantly became his friend, an Alexander City newspaper, The Outlook, reported.
“He didn’t have an enemy,” said Christopher Baker, Harrelson’s older brother.
