Dear Kimberly Rae,

Today I saved the life of the Ambassador to Cheltnam! The dastardly enemy infiltrated into the Ambassador's house, and planted a bomb in the atrium. Alone and unafraid, I single handedly cleared the house of Chelt. I located the planted explosives and bravely ran with it out of the building, keeping the world safe for democracy. You would be very proud of me. I plan on putting myself in for the Medal of Honor. I am selfless, to a fault.

Yours,

QQ Havercruft III
