Commemorative certificate
Issued to Jan Maciag, in Jerusalem, on 1 December 1943. it is written in Latin, conveyed by the order of Friars in the Province of St. Bonaventure in Tuscany but given at the Convent of the Most Holy Savior in Jerusalem in 1943. It reads: "Having been given the power by apostolic authority to confer on the faithful a medal commemorating the saintly pilgrimage to the holy places, we have decided, through this medal of honor, to highlight your pious zeal by virtue of which you have come to venerate the holy places of the redemption of humanity, so that the fruits and memories of this saintly voyage remain alive in your spirit." The certificate and medal appear to have been issued to various members of the Polish Second Corps who visited Jerusalem.
