Partly printed document completed in manuscript. SIGNED BY DOUGLAS MACARTHUR (1880-1964) and Capt. Jay F. Razor. 1 page. On illustrated "Honor Guard" letterhead. With seal.

A certificate for P.F.C. Paul E. Leffler, acknowledging that he was a member of the Honor Guard to Douglas MacArthur from 3 May 1946 to 12 September 1946. Signed by the Commanding Officer Captain Jay F. Razor (), it also boldy signed by MacArthur below the original seal.

An elite unit, the men were hand-selected by General MacArthur from every combat division of the U.S. Army in the Pacific, based on their military bearing, intelligence, and physical stature. Providing secruity for himself, his Headquarters, and his family, the unit became one of the most visible units, serving from the end of World War II through to his service during the Korean War in 1951.
