David Lamme Stone Jr. (15 August 1876 – 28 December 1959) was a United States Army major general.

Stone was then assigned to the 25th Infantry, serving at Fort Lawton in Washington state and commanding a company in Hawaii until June 1915.

[5] In May 1917, a month after the American entry into World War I, Stone was placed in charge of constructing Camp Lewis and promoted to major.

[5] When the division was sent to France in May 1918, Stone became an assistant chief of staff and received a temporary promotion to colonel.

As Assistant Chief of Staff, G-1, 3d Division, as G-1 of that organization, and later as G-1, 2d Army, Colonel Stone performed with distinction his important duties.

In the action from 5 July to 2 August 1918, near Chateau Thierry, and in the advance to the Ourcq River, he displayed tireless energy and ability of an unusually high order in supplying troops under the most difficult conditions.

[9] From August 1932 to June 1933, Stone taught military science and tactics at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign while also commanding the 52nd Infantry Regiment.

After his first wife's death, Stone remarried with divorcée Anita (Thorne) Corse (6 March 1895 – 5 June 1994) on 1 January 1936 at her family's mansion, Thornewood, on American Lake in Lakewood, Washington near Fort Lewis.
