The services you rendered for your
country we hope will never be for-
gotten by us who stayed in the
homeland.
We know that during those years
of separation from your loved ones,
there must have been many moments
of loneliness and even perhaps a
longing to see good old Summerhill
once more.
We have missed all of you and
needless to say, the community has
not been the sane without its young.
people.
To the wives or parents of these
young people, we would say that your
courage and spirit were ahvays won-
derful while they were gone and to
the boys may they start this New
Year with lots of joy, happiness and
prosperity and continue for all the
years to come.
So, on behalf of the Summerhill
community, we would ask you to ac-
cept these gifts as a humble tribute
to your great services, and the sac-
rifices yon nnade for your King and
country.
