Lettre de louanges

Cher Monsieur,

Votre fils gardien de cabine du bateau, troupier ......

Depuis juillet/2007, date à laquelle il a rejoint l'armée, il s'est distingué par l'effort transcendant dont il a fait preuve jusqu'à aujourd'hui, sa discipline, son assiduité, sa prudence lorsqu'il utilise et protège les biens de l'Etat et il a donné l'exemple à ses camarades.

Vous devez être fier de votre enfant. Je vous félicite et souhaite la perpétuation de sa santé et de ses réussites.

Le commandant de l'armée.
Remarks about the translation
'Vous devez être fier de votre enfant' n'est pas la traduction exacte de 'Böyle bir evlada sahip olduğunuz için ne kadar övünç duysanız azdır', mais la plus proche que j'ai trouvé.

Is the comma after "July, 2007..." necessary?

You can have a look here if you want and decide for yourself:

Dates

There are many ways of punctuating dates:

July 4th, 1998
July 4th 1998
4th July, 1998
4th July 1998
Tuesday July 4th, 1998
Tuesday July 4th 1998
Tuesday, July 4th, 1998
etc.

Be consistent!

If you do not use the abbreviations 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, etc. then you should always use a comma if the date format places the day of the month and the year next to each other:

July 4, 1998

If the date is written with figures, you can use full stops, hyphens or slashes to separate the figures:

12/09/1998
04-09-98
14.2.98

In referring to years, an apostrophe may be used to indicate missing words or numbers:

In the 'nineties
in '68

However, this is often omitted.

To write 'the nineteen nineties' in figures:

the 1990s
or the 1990's

(the first is more modern, and more logical).

We don't have a fixed date here, only the month and the year. But that's OK.
