It was May 6th at around 1600 EST when we received messages from concerned friends of “Jim”. Jim a retired CSM had just posted the status you see in the picture saying his goodbyes.
Many of his peers and subordinates messaged us asking for help as Jim whereabouts were unknown with an indication that he moved to the Philippines after his retirement.
His family including his son and ex-wife also reached out to us, but no one could provide either an address or even a phone number for him.
Starting by contacting the US Embassy in Manila we managed to get through to the emergency response officer but unfortunately Jim was not registered with the embassy and thus they had no record of his address. They stated that they would attempt to contact the local VA office as soon as it open (keep in mind that it was roughly 0500 local time).
Our only clue was a picture Jim posted on his Facebook stating that it was “his new view”.
