?s. jor General Richard Dcnovan
eighth Service Comand
Dalls, texas
My dear Ganeral:
I beg to address you with reference to Gardner I.
Brcmn, Jr., a yo ng an., 21 years of age, of Galveston, who
is in the Army, and by reason of his studies at the University
of Baas and at the University of Houston in psychology, has
been assigned to psychological work in the Arnr hospitals
at Fort Sam Houston and !hoiinney. ie volunteered before his
induction, but was assigned to limited service on account of
his eyes.
I am informed that his work has been so satisfactory
that his superior officer has suggested that he make an effort
to be sent to the Arng School for Medical Administration
Officers and I further understand that his request for such
an assign ment was referred to whoever is in charge of this
particular branch in your Eighth Servioe ounnd.
Would you mind passing on this letter of reommenda-
tion to the proper officer who has charge of the mtter, as
I believe it will be a distinct advantage to have a young
min of this calibre, ability and integrity given an opporttiity
to sore ably serve his oountry than by being a more private
on limited service.
With personal regards and best wishes,
Yours very truly,15
