Charles Colson's Memorandum, page 2

Charles Colson (here in 1973) served as special counsel to President Nixon from 1969 to 1973. His style was known to be demanding, as seen in the memorandum he sent to the president’s staff setting the rules and limiting time off during the 24-hour, 7-day a week reelection campaign. He promised to make amends for bruised feelings after the election. The author was among the recipients of the memorandum.
