James “Jimmy” Charles Trimble III
Birth: 10 Oct 1925, Washington, District of Columbia, District of Columbia, USA. Death: 1 Mar 1945 (aged 19), Iwo Jima, Ogasawara-shichō, Tokyo Metropolis, Japan.
Jimmy Trimble attended St. Albans, a prep school in Washington, D.C., and was a star athlete for four years in football, basketball and baseball. Trimble's mound heroics caught the attention of Senators owner Clark Griffith, who invited him to a tryout. Manager Ossie Bluege was impressed and gave him a $5,000 signing bonus and agreed to pay for a four-year scholarship to Duke University. American novelist, Gore Vidal, was a student at St. Albans the same time as Trimble. His 1948 novel The City and the Pillar was dedicated to "the memory of J.T." Vidal claimed he had a sexual relationship with Trimble and that the athlete was the only person he had ever loved.

Trimble enrolled at Duke in September 1943. With World War II in full stride he enlisted with the Marines. In June 1944, Private Trimble headed to the Pacific Theater. In February 1945, the 3rd Marine Division left Guam bound for Iwo Jima. Just after midnight on March 1, the area was overrun by the Japanese. A Japanese soldier, with a mine strapped to his body, wrapped his arms around the severely wounded Trimble and detonated the mine, killing them both.
