Mr. Costa,
Sir, I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for our Country when you served with the U.S. Army in Europe during WW II as a member of the 741st Tank Battalion. The 741st saw almost continuous action in Northern Europe from Omaha Beach at Normandy on D-Day-to the drive across France to the Battle of the Bulge in the Ardennes Forest. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.
