As I reflect on your many contributions to our Nation, I am filled with admiration and respect for the professionalism, dedication and high purpose which have characterized your career as both a soldier and a statesman. I know I speak for many of our fellow citizens in thanking you and in expressing our hopes for your happiness, not only on your birthday, but also in the years ahead. With warm personal regards to you and Mrs. Ridgway.” In very good to fine condition, with light horizontal staining from onetime inclusion in magnetic photo album.
