OF ALL AMERICANS" S THE PRESIDENT'S hlESS4GE On behalf of all Americans, Nancy and I send our warmest wishes to each of you for a Happy Holiday Season. And it is a Happy Holiday Season because America is at peace and America is secure. Fox this gift we are all grateful to you, the dedicated men and women of the United States Armed Forces. It is certainly fitting to thank you because it is your devotion to duty that permits us to celebrate this Holiday Season according to our own special customs and traditions, and to look with hope toward 1985 and beyond. At this time of Hanukkah and Christmas, our religious freedom means so much to each and every one of us. However, we know this is a particularly difficult time of year to be away from home, and those of you whose duty requires you to be separated from your friends and loved ones deserve special recognition. While you may not be able to celebrate the Holiday Season with those dearest to your heart, you may be sure that they are thinking of you and appreciating your service. Well, I join them in those For all good little boys and girls. feelings. You are very special people.
