Dear Friend:

Your name has been submitted by the County Director of your County Safety Organization as the nearest of kin or person to whom the enclosed certificate of appreciation may be sent for enduring preservation.

This certificate is issued by the State of Minnesota in profound appreciation of gallant services performed and the supreme sacrifice made by a worthy son of our great Republic for his country and the cause of humanity. This is one fitting way to provide a perpetual reminder that the brave lad whose name is thus engrossed, gave to his utmost to the common task which confronted all our people during the mighty conflict, to make certain that "Democracy shall not perish from the earth."

Very truly yours,
MINNESOTA COMMISSION OF PUBLIC SAFETY
