Mr. Lindsay,
Sir, I would just like to say thank you for your years of dedicated service and sacrifice-first for our Country when you served with the U.S. Army as a a member of the 3rd Armored Cav(Brave Rifles!) and later for the citizens of Hanover when you served with the HFD. And to your Family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.
