Hall of Fame center Kareem Abdul-Jabbar was presented with this Certificate of Appreciation from the 1st Battalion 40th Field Artillery in 2002. Abdul-Jabbar, an ardent military historian, wrote a book about the 761st Tank Battalion, titled Brothers in Arms: The Epic Story of the 761st Tank Battalion, WWII's Forgotten Heroes, in 2004. This certificate is displayed in a 15.25 x 11.25-inch frame, and it has been signed by military officers Joseph M. Sandel and Ralph W. Haddock. This item derives directly from Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and a personally hand-signed LOA from Kareem will accompany this item.
