U.S NAVY PRE-FLIGHT SCHOOL |\OWA CITY, IOWA September 8, 1942 Dr. Forrest C. Allen 801 Louisiana Ave. Lawrence, Kansas Dear Dr. Allen: Since my last letter to you and Mrs. Allen, I have been stationed here at the Iowa Pre-Flight School. Words cannot express my appreciation for your recommen- dation. I sincerely believe it bore great weight. While playing baseball here, I came in contact with a cadet by the name of Brennan , a graduate of Notre Dame. After talking with him I learned that he knew Jane — small world after all, eh! Give our regards when you write her. Seeing our football schedule I notice that we play you September 19th. Betty and I are planning to attend. We will make every effort to see you all. Wishing you all well, heed
