"Sammy, old boy, remember that you are going over to France to lick hell out of Germany. You can do it, too. Just give old Kaiser Bill and his wonderful efficiency stuff' such a yankee walloping that there won't be enough gas left to fill the envelope of one of his baby kill-ing gas bags called Zeppelins.
Sammy, you've never been licked yet and you are getting too old to learn new habits.
The old folks at home are proudly watching you, so get busy and make this little old world sit up and take notice.
Arthur Guy Empey."
