[[preprinted]] CONTINENTAL AIR DEFENSE COMMAND ENT AIR FORCE BASE COLORADO SPRINGS, COLORADO OFFICE OF THE COMMANDER-in-CHIEF [[/preprinted]] 30 November 1954 Brig Gen Benjamin O. Davis, Jr. DCS/Operations Headquarters, 5th Air Force APO 710, San Francisco, Calif. Dear General: I don't know when it's given me so much pleasure to address a letter "Dear General." Although this note is belated, it is none-the-less sincere in its feeling that the promotion was well deserved -- and further, that it couldn't have happened to a finer guy. I hope this is just the first of more to come. Sincerely, [[signature]] "Fletch" [[/signature]] JOHN F. FLETCHER Colonel, USAF Executive Assistant
