DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION July 21, 1943.

The Commanding General,
Camp Lee, Virginia.

Dear Sir:

I desire to commend to you for your serious
consideration Private Robert M. Trump, Co. K, 10th Q.M.T.R.,
Camp Lee, Virginia, for Officers Candidate School.

Robert Trump was one of our outstanding
students at the University of Kansas. This applies to scholar-
ship, activities in athletics, social life and politics. He
obtained his A. B. degree here in June, 1942. He majored in
Journalism. He came here as a transfer from Ottawa University
with advanced standing, and while at the University of Kansas
was on the Dean's Honor Roll for each of the three years. He
was a member of the tennis team, was elected to Sachem, the men's
senior honor society, and to Sigma Delta Chi, honorary journal-
ism fraternity. His outstanding scholastic record was rewarded
by election to Phi Beta Kappa. He was a member of Phi Kappa Psi,
social fraternity.

Bob Trump possesses a forceful personality, a
strong and dominant character, and high intellectual leadership.
He is one of our key men. He has completed the requirements for
a graduate degree in Quartermaster work and related subjects at
the Harvard Graduate School of Business Administration, and is
now at Camp Lee for his basic and technical training. I am sure
thet his Harvard transcript will verify his outstanding work that
he did previously here at the University. He has unusual capacity
for leadership, and I am happy to recommend him without reservation
or evasion whatsoever.

Very cordially yours,
