| The Governor of Alaska will issue a certificate of
appreciation to WW 2 veterans serving in the Aleutians during the
campaign period of June 3, 1942 through August 24, 1943, according
to Bill Jones, Tavares Florida. Also, any member of a veteran's
family can apply. Anyone who has not received one, should
write to: Jerry Beale, Director Veterans Affairs, Department of
Military & Veterans Affairs, P O Box 5800, Fort Richardson, Alaska,
99505-5800. This information will also be in our next regular
Williwaw Letter, which will be mailed the end of November or early
December, for those who do not have internet service.
Quite a large number of veterans have received this cerificate
and are real proud of it, so let Jerry know if you have not received
yours.
PS: If you are not receiving the Williwaw Letters, the fare is
$15.00 per calendar year. Email
Al King or send your check to
Al King, P O Box
