THE WHITE HOUSE
WASHINGTON
Christmas, 1974
TO THE MEN AND WOMEN VETERANS
OF THE ARMED FORCES
Christmas is a time of joy, a time to reflect
on our blessings and a time for goodwill toward
others. Most importantly, it is a time of
peace.
Mrs. Ford and I want to convey the very best
of the Season's greetings to each of you. I
am sure our fellow citizens join us in these
sentiments.
As one who responded to your nation's need,
you have helped keep safe the heritage we
cherish. Your sacrifice and unfailing dedica-
tion can never be forgotten. May it give you
a special feeling of happiness and contentment
to know that you begin the New Year enriched
by such selfless service to our country.
Harred R. Ford
