These famous inspirational letters were passed out to all of the Allied troops on the eve of the D-Day Invasion.
Many were saved and it is not uncommon to find them in the personal effects of WW2 veterans.
This particular example is in a scrap book of an airmen in the Royal Canadian Air Force.
Be careful when acquiring examples of this letter. Many FAKES and REPRODUCTIONS exist. Originals should have three folds and measure 6" X 9".
Thanks for looking.
