"Dear Mr. Jewett:

That's such a manly, patriotic letter of yours that I must send you this line of personal acknowledgement. The letter will be put on file, and you will be called if I am allowed to raise the division..."

This warm letter was a response from the period when Roosevelt applied for permission to raise a Division of Volunteers in World War I, and then went to the European front with it as its commanding officers but President Wilson and the War department rejected his plea.
