Item Details
Description
LEONARD F. WING
(1893-1945) Major general, Commander Army 43rd Infantry Division, named "Winged Victory". War-date T.L.S. 1p. 4to., Headquarters of the 43d Infantry Division, Feb. 27, 1945, to two boys collecting autographs. In part: "...When I left home over four years ago my boys were still boys. One is now a prisoner of war in Germany. War is a terrifically useless and wasteful thing and boys of your generation must, and I am sure will, do everything to prevent it. Not by misguided ideas of disarmament or pacifism by insisting that our country be so strong that no one will dare attack it...". Wing includes two pieces of Japanese invasion money, ten pesos each, signed by him adding rank. With original envelope, light staining to bottom, signatures on bills a bit light, overall very good condition.
