I appreciate how difficult it was for you not to be with your family at Christmas. But it was your unselfish devotion and dedication to your job which, combined with the efforts of many others, made it possible for these brave men to be with their families and relatives on Christmas after twenty months of suffering in prison.” Accompanied by the original mailing envelope.
