The experiences, adven­ tures, joys and pleasures were great indeed. M en of the different Arms became friends here; San Diego was thankful for their services and the men were thankful, being stationed here. They were proud of the work they accomplished and the services performed. Realizing tkese facts, we have attempted to chronicle the events and names of men who v^ere here during the Exposition year.

Dear Sir:- From the pioneer days of our City to the present time the men of the Army and Navy have formed an integral part in its history. Soarcely a page can be turned that does not chronicle some event connect­ ed with them. San Diego is indebted to them, as its history w ill show, for many courtesies and for very pronounced assistance in gain­ ing recognition at the National capitol. The same generous spirit among the men of the Army and Navy of bygone years obtains today, and has been markedly manifest in their ready acquiescence in participating in the various affairs of a public nature which have been undertaken by the exposition officials, and which have formed so important a part in the success of our Exposition. I feel that I am expressing the sentiment of the people of our City when I say that we very appreciatively acknowledge our obligation to them for contributing to the success of our fair, and for the cor­ dial co-operation which has always been given to the citizens of San Diego by the men of the Army and Navy. Very sincerely, Mayor. / LXPOSmCNSAN DIEGO J u ly 1 5 th , 1 9 1 5 . H r. A. A ronson, E d it o r , Army and Navy Review, San Diego, California. My dear sir: To the men of the Army and Navy, San Diego owes a debt of grati­ tude as their presence in this city has been of unusual value, especially during this year of 1915 when thousands o f v i s i t o r s have come from a l l p a r t s o f the United States to see the Panama-Cal­ ifornia Exposition. The Exposition officials feel that the men of the different arms of the service have added considerable to the success of the Exposition and their w ill­ ingness to lend a hand on all occasions has been of inestimable value. It seems only fitting that this memorable year should be properly recorded and perpetuated by the Army and Navy Review and as president of the Panama-Cal- ifornia Exposition I am w illing to lend my hearty support to this undertaking and wish it all success. In behalf of the Exposition, I desire personally to thank the gallant and courteous men who go to make up the ranks o f the U nited States Army and Navy.

Dear Mr. Aronson:- No body in San Diego r e a liz e s what the c it y owes to the presence here o f the men o f the Army and Navy better than I. They have added so much to the worthwhilednees of San Diego not alone for the tourist but for the citizen of this Pearl of California, that any attempt on ray part to voice, or measure that addition would be worse than futile. I do feel however that I should make plain to you my person­ al sense of obligation. I have learned of y o u r p la n to perpetuate the memory of this Exposition year in the ARMY AND NAVY REVIEW, and I shall consider it a real obligation on my part to do what I may to assist in making such a meritorious project a success from every point of view. That it will be a success goes without saying, for the people of this city feel pretty much as I do about the splendid men of the two services and the publication that represents them in San D ie g o . I am, my Dear Mr. Aronson SINCERELY YOURS, C o a s t A r t i l l e r e y C o r p s N a t i o n a l G u a r d o f C a l i f o r n i a SAN DIEGO Mr. A. Aronson, Editor, Army and Nav$ Review, San Diego, California. Sir: It is with pleasure that I acknowledge tke excellent service rendered during 1915 by the A rm y and NaVy at the Panama-Cal- ifornia Exposition, San Diego, California. The citizens of San Diego appreciate the presence of the v arious organizations representing the several branches of tke mili­ tary service, and desire to express their gratitude for tke willing­ ness shown by these officers and men in making our exposition and other local occasions the successes obtained. T he commissioned and enlisted personnel of these troops is of the highest order, their conduct and bearing has added greatly to the pleasure of meeting and knowing them, and the performance of their duty here has been such as calls for our honest admiration. Y our effort to perpetuate the facts associated with the service of these troops within our city gates meets w ith m y hearty ap­ proval, and I am sure your review of their activities as published in the A R M Y A N D N A V Y R E V IE W will give satisfaction to all concerned.
