The administration of that portion of the trust territory which includes the islands of Tinian and Saipan is hereby transferred from the Secretary of the Interior to the Secretary of the Navy.
It is an office that is without parallel in the history of the world.
This order shall supersede Executive Order No. 9277 of December 3, 1941, entitled 'Award of the Purple Heart to Persons Serving with the Navy, Marine Corps or Coast Guard of the United States.'
Of course I would. I wouldn't be discourteous to anybody. I never have been.
