TLS as president, one page, 6.75 x 8.75, White House letterhead, August 3, 1955. Letter to General Anthony C. 'Nuts' McAuliffe, commander-in-chief of the United States Army in Europe. In full: "While in Geneva I was gratified to learn of the support your command was giving to the U.S. Delegation, and particularly to have the opportunity to meet Major Carpenter, Captain Coles, and Mr. Bartlett, who were in charge of the operation. In meeting them, I was able to express in person my appreciation of the fine work being accomplished. Since, however, I could not meet all of the members of your command on duty with us, I hope you will let each of them know of my appreciation. To you, my thanks for the support given by your command as a whole." In fine condition, with four old tape stains. In June, President Eisenhower had attended the Geneva Summit, which brought together the leaders of the major world powers—the United States, Soviet Union, Great Britain, and France—in order to begin discussions on peace.
