<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Rastella, post: 329655, member: 6722&quot;]President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed a resolution to award civilians an uncompensated service merit during WWII through SSS on July 2, 1945 - almost 3 months after his sudden death. This is my Certificate of Appreciation to a doctor that is also signed by Roosevelt instead of Truman. Notice that it is undated.&nbsp; It is also signed by Coker Stevenson, Governor of Texas, and Lewis B. Hershey, Army General.&nbsp; I don&#039;t know the 4th man, J. Matt Gage - yet.&nbsp; So evidently Roosevelt signed the resolution and some of the awards ahead of time in preparation? How many did he sign? How did they (legally) do this?&nbsp; The certificate is behind glass which may affect the way you see it. I&#039;m going to get it authenticated and preserved correctly.&nbsp; Thank you for any help you can share.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]110231[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
