WHITE HOUSE LETTER

GAYLE D. HELMICK

To you who answered the call of your country and served in its Armed Forces to bring about the total defeat of the enemy, I extend the heartfelt thanks if a grateful Nation.  As one of the Nation's finest, you undertook the most severe task one van be called upon to perform.  Because you demonstrated the fortitude, resourcefulness and calm judgment necessary to carry out the task, we now look to you for leadership and example in further exalting our country in peace.

/s/ Harry Truman
