the War Department and the American people have
accepted my dire dsoster with O torbeoronoe and

Reading those words will bring the surprising REQ

addition to suffering the hordships Of imprisonment,
also suffered feeling Of personal responsibility tor

Thot is q tragedy for which the administration, the
War Department and the American people can make
beIoted amends. They can at least assure him thot
he has been and will remain the hero OF Corre9'dor
And though thot cannot erose the orturn9
thought Of failure and dserooe that must have beset
him during his prison years, it should bring General
Wainwright the comforting knowledge thot to his
