MEMORANDUM FOR: Insurance Branch
Benefits and Casualty Division
Office of Personnel
SUBJECT : Commendation
1. Now that the local A.mcy Hospitalisation and Life
Insurance drive has been brought to a successful conclusion.
I should like to take this opportunity to highly commend the
Insurance Branch, Benefits and Casualty Division, Office of
Personnel on a job well done.
Z. In all phases of this operation each unit of this
Branch carried out Its ansigurnents in a superior manner.
Deepite the unusual pressure encountered by all of you during
this month long drive, you consistently displayed courtesy,
tact and a sympathetic understanding in assisting your fellow
employees with their problems. Frequent laudatory state-
ments have reached this Office relative to your fine perform-
ance of duty.
3. Especially is it realized that the team of girls
manning the Cashiers Office were under continuous pressure
for many hours each day, yet never failed to combine the
virtues above mentioned along with constant vigilance in
accurately performing all procedural functions.
4. Again, you ma!r all well be proud of these fine
accomplishments.
