DEPARTMENT OF STATE
March 1, 1977
I wanted to send you my warmest
congratulations on your appointment as
Director of Central Intelligence. We
here -- and I know your colleagues at
NATO feel the same way -- are going to
miss your leadership and counsel at
AFSOUTH. On a purely selfish basis, I
am especially sorry that you are leaving
Naples now, for I will be going in June
to be Dick Gardner's DCM in Rome and had
looked forward to working with you in
Italy.
I wish you every success in your
new job. In bocca lupo!
With kind regards,
Sincerely,
H. Allen Holmes
Director
Office of NATO Affairs
Admiral Stansfield Turner, USN
Director
Central Intelligence Agency.
Washington, D.C. 20505
