Ashley H. Perry has applied for a transfer to the Isthmus of Panama either as a pharmacist or postal clerk, but no action has been taken on his application. He asks Theodore Roosevelt if he would be able to submit his name to the War Department to inspire action on his case, and cites his previous experience.
