P.E. Cullum, Esq.,

Forest Hill,
S.E. 23.

Dear Mr. Cullum,

I am so pleased that you have seen the notice about our D-Day
project, and I am most grateful to you for getting in touch with us
so promptly.

Our book is to be written by Mr. Cornelius Ryan, a former war
correspondent. Mr. Ryan is at present in Paris, interviewing French
civilians and resistance workers who were in Normandy during the first
hours of the Invasion. He is returning to England shortly, when he
hopes to be able to talk to men and women of the British Forces about
their D-Day experiences. I am sure Mr. Ryan will be very interested
to talk to you about your own experiences with Admiral Ramsey on that
day. In the meantime, it would be a very great help to me in planning
interviews and itineraries if you would very kindly complete and return
the enclosed questionnaire as soon as you possibly can. A stamped and
addressed envelope is attached for your use.

I should like to thank you for your kind co-operation, and I look
forward very much to receiving your completed questionnaire.

Yours sincerely,

(Joan Ogle Isaacs)
