DS, one page, 8 x 10, May 8, 1919. Roosevelt, as acting Secretary of the Navy, temporarily appoints Harold J. Bellingham an ensign in the Navy, and ordering him to report for duty on the Puget Sound. In very good condition, with scattered toning, punch holes to top edge, several pencil notations, and a paperclip impression to top edge.

Less than a year later, FDR would become the vice-presidential nominee in his first foray into national politics.
