Description

From the home of Rembrandt V Smith: an image of a public award presented by the governor of Li Ping County of Kuey-Chou Province, China, to US servicemen during World War II, after they were shot down and rescued by a local village. The translation is as follows:

Driving armored vehicles for a long distance to Fujiyama and destroying it. Heroes take the Japanese enemy’s bodies as their meals when they are hungry, and drink the enemy’s blood when they’re thirsty! On December 8, 33 of the Republic of China’s calendar year (12/8/1944), an U.S. air force aircraft had an accident over Li Ping County. Six air men bailed out from their stricken plane and parachuted safely without incident at Ba Zhou, Li Ping County. Our ally came to help us to fight the Japanese enemy from a distant land during the critical moment of war in the Gui Zhow state and the Guang X i state. I am very grateful for their help and am encouraged by their efforts. I write this letter to thank our ally and will never forget their help!

Commemoration to Comrade Smith From Fan Cheung Lee, Governor of Li Ping County, Gui Zhou, The Republic of China
