American World War I ace (1879–1936). His zealous ambition, overreaching bravado, and vocal criticism of the War and Navy departments following the war led to a court-martial, a guilty verdict, and prior to a suspension, his resignation from the military in 1926. TLS signed “Wm. Mitchell,” one page, 6 x 7, Boxwood letterhead, November 18, 1934. Brief letter to a collector. In full: “Herewith is my autograph, which you requested.” In fine condition, with a bit of light mirroring of signature and a couple light creases. RRAuction COA.
