In part: “It has been a great honor to have held direct command of the Eighth Army for nearly two months, and it is with great personal regret that I now leave you on the arrival of your new Army Commander…I thank you with all my heart for the magnificent way in which you have responded to the heavy calls I have made on you.” In fine condition, with some scattered light creasing and toning.
