Dear Dr. Rankin:
This is just a little note to offerrmy con-
gratulations on the recent high honor, which was bestowed
on you, in your election to the Presidency of the
American Surgical Association. Certainly that Organi-
zation could have selected no one more deserving of
their highest office. Your contributions to su gery in
this country and what you did for the American soldiers
in World War II should unquestionably reserve for you a
place among the hnmortals of American surgery.
i Hoping that this finds you in excellent health
iQ and in your usual energetic mood, I am,
Q Respectfully,
I HGH/vg R. Gordon Holcombe
