O'Connor question

[PJgunner]

In O'Connor's book THE LAST BOOK, which he never lived to finish, there is a picture of Jerry with his mother in military uniform. Apparently he served in the Korean War and had serious emotional problems afterwards. I don't remember anything about drugs or alcohol, but IIRC, he finally commited suicide.
The book was finished up by his son Bradford and Jim Rikhoff.
