Role in Plot[]
The entire squad, including Lieutenant Miller, mispronounces his name Jo-en-es, to which Jones explains that his name is common and is surprised that no one had heard of it before. When Washington arrives for Caboose, Lieutenant Miller orders Jones to untie him and bring him forward, where Jones reluctantly agrees. When he does, Caboose "accidentally" shoots Jones in the back, causing him to scream in pain before dying from the wound.
Trivia[]
