From a contemporary press report:
James P. Coleman, 85, a retired Navy captain who served mainly on destroyers before joining a defense contractor as a project officer, died of congestive heart failure August 24, 2000 at Arlington Hospital. He had lived in Arlington since 1964.
Captain Coleman, who was born in Whitmire, South Carolina, was a 1939 graduate of the U.S. Naval Academy at Annapolis and received a master’s degree in business administration from George Washington University.
He served aboard a destroyer in the Pacific during World War II and continued with command assignments for most of his 29-year naval career. Following sea duty as commander of a destroyer squadron in San Diego, he was sent to the Office of Chief of Naval Operations at the Pentagon to work for the Strike Warfare Research & Development Division.
He retired from active duty in the Navy in 1968, then worked 17 years for Vitro Laboratories in Silver Spring as a project officer of guided missile systems.
His military decorations included the Legion of Merit and Bronze Star.
He was a life member of the Navy League and a member of Emmanuel Episcopal Church in Alexandria and the Army Navy Country Club.
Survivors include his wife of 59 years, Mae Maner Coleman of Arlington; three children, Mariana Coleman Blain of Burke, James Pagaud Coleman Jr. of Marietta, Ga., and William Sloan Coleman of Arlington; and five grandsons.
