WAR DEPARTMENT UNITED STATES STRATEGIC BOMBING SURVEY APO-413, c/o Postmaster, New York, N.Y. 19th May 1945 My dear Mr. Lober, May I acknowledge, with many thanks, the announcement of my election as an Academician, as well as your kind word of congratulation. Needless to say, I feel honored to accept it, and will be glad to comply with the requirements as soon as I am able. For the moment I am still overseas with the Air Force, but now that VE day has come, I have reasonable hopes of returning home soon. With renewed appreciation, which I hope you will express to, Mr. Nichols and the others, I am, Cordially yours, Samuel Chamberlain
