TLS signed "Sparky," one page, 8.5 x 11, National D-Day Memorial Foundation letterhead, May 15, 1999. Letter to Ed McGeean. In part: "The other day...I spoke about a project near and dear to my heart: The National D-Day Memorial. At that time I made a general appeal for help in setting up an endowment in the name of the outstanding cartoonist of World War II, Bill Mauldin...Folks who remember the War years know how important people such as Bill Mauldin, George Baker, Milt Caniff, Bil Keane, Dave Breger and others were to morale on both the home front and front lines. I am delighted that their role in our collective effort to overcome totalitarianism will be spotlighted in a national memorial that exists to honor the people who took part in the watershed event of the century...I hope you will join me in making a gift or pledge of $1000.00." In fine condition.
