Irene M. Givenwilson writes to Edith Roosevelt to express her sympathies on the loss of Quentin Roosevelt and to share her memories of Quentin at the aviation school. She details the impressive reputation Quentin had for a good teacher of pilots and a teacher the men trusted. She also reveals the commanding officers of the school sent Quentin to the front very reluctantly and he was only to stay for a short time before returning to the school; he was considered too valuable as a teacher of pilots to lose.
