Wood, James D.
Wood writes with a change of address but also with the news that he with the United States Naval Training Station at San Diego "stood Captain's and Admiral's inspection" on September 25. "The 'Admiral' was President Roosevelt" with an entourage that included newsreel cameramen. He trusts Lauren Post's "discretion as to the time of publication," since the event has not yet reached the newspapers.
