Dear Jennifer,
Thank you again for all your help with this presentation. It was mostly appreciated by the Consul General and the family
members ofJack Hargis.
In the minutes, there is mentioning of 2 Dutch resistants. This is a small error; the world 'Dutch' should be deleted,
Thanks again, and Happy Holidays!
