General Maurice Rose: This Man Belongs to America. (Fundraising appeal for The General Rose Memorial Hospital, Denver, Colorado).
Photographic illustrations and an architectural rendering. pp. 16. Original pictorial wrappers. 8vo.

, (Denver): c. 1945.

Major General Maurice Rose (1899-1945) was a United States Army general during World War II and World War I veteran. The son and grandson of rabbis from Poland, General Rose was at the time the highest ranking Jew in the U.S. Army and was the highest-ranking American killed by enemy fire in the European Theater of Operations during the war.
     Within weeks of his death Jewish leaders increased fundraising efforts for a hospital they had planned and decided to name after the fallen Jewish war hero: The General Rose Memorial Hospital, today known as the the Rose Medical Center.
