The letter discusses the possibility of presenting a book about the contribution of African American soldiers in World War II to President Truman, but it is ultimately decided that it is not possible at this time. The importance of highlighting the role of African American servicemen in the war is emphasized, and it is mentioned that many more books on this topic will likely be written in the future. A request is made for a letter to be written by Matt Connelly to forward to Mr. Silveira.
