Seriously Ted, thanks for all the help you’ve given me from the time we met (Mr. Roberts - My 1st picture) and I’m glad we’re together again on my 10th picture (No Time For Sergeants). I know this one is going to be real great for all of us. Again, thanks a million for everything from Midway & the Navy to Burbank & the Air Force. All the health, wealth, luck, success & happiness in the world to you. You deserve it. Your friend, Nick, March 15, 1957, Warner Bros.
