Transcript of the previous letter post:
March 4, 1968 Dear Roger - Having served 4 1/2 years in the Air Force during World War II, it hardly seems possible that young men are once again leaving their homes to serve in another war. I hope your tenure in the service will not be as long as mine and that you will return safe and sound and proud of your contribution to your country, as I was. Your mother tells me of your love for baseball and I hope you will be able to continue your interest in the game while you are away. God speed, good luck and my very best wishes. Cordially yours, Hank Greenberg

Ty Cobb writes back to a fan inquiring about what it was like playing with her father. Also, instructs her on how to gain access to his playing stats/records.
