He was born February 4, 1942 in Keene, New Hampshire to the late Henry Onesine and Dorothy May Howes Boucher. Jim faithfully served his country in the United States Army during the Vietnam War, where he was a helicopter mechanic and a Huey gunner. He was a senior mechanic for Delta Airlines for 30 years where he was known as "Boo". In his early years at Delta, Jim was on the restoration team of the Huff-Deland Crop Duster from Monroe, LA which now is displayed in the Delta Museum. After retiring from Delta, Jim was a substitute teacher for the Henry County Schools System for many years and then taught A&P mechanics at Clayton State University. Jim was an accomplished writer - short stories about his time in the Army and Vietnam. He also wrote a novel about his life growing up in the South, which added some fiction to this story, as he actually was raised in the North. He was an avid reader and private pilot.
