 Cpl. James "Jamie" Edgar Smith Jr (February 1972 - October 3, 1993) was a U.S. Army Ranger who served in Mogadishu, Somalia, and was one of 18 American soldiers killed during the Battle of Mogadishu of 1993. Smith was combat effective throughout the majority of the battle with his squad around Super 61s crash site, until later in the night hours, when he was shot in the right thigh. The bullet severed his femoral artery, and bled out for some time before dying that same night.
