Dear YL:

                Your operation noted by the attached certificate is considered by us a contribution to the public service record of the amateur.    ARRL accordingly presents this certificate to you with congratulations and thanks.

                The Public Service Certificate is not the type of award that is   specifically worked for, asked for or expected.    It comes as a spontaneous recognition of outstanding work by individual amateurs during communications emergencies.   It should give you deep satisfaction to know that the type of work you have done best exemplifies the spirit which makes amateur radio a valuable asset to the public and to the nation.

                The issuance of this certificate and the services for which it was issued have been recorded in the permanent card file of all such services by amateurs.  We hope that you will continue your work along emergency communications lines and that you will take an active part in the preparedness program of your Amateur Radio Public Service Corps.  73

                                                                        Sincerely yours,

GH*JM                                                           George Hart, W1NJM
