I certainly wouldn't view it as improper.
In terms of relevance, was it a pro forma letter sent to every officer who assisted, or is it personalized as in 'your assistance with making the arrangements for the security detail' etc.
Or, are you looking at it from a political perspective?
ETA: During our hiring processes you would be surprised at the number of resumes of application that get rejected simply because they don't hit all the prerequisites for the position. For us, if that letter was an attempt to meet some prerequisite, it might be the difference between getting an interview and not getting an interview. To the point - if one of the prerequisites for a job was a background in adult education, I'd damned sure indicate I had taught adult Sunday School and was a Coach in my job at McDonald's if I didn't have anything to throw at that prerequisite.

Patriotism means to stand by the country. It does not mean to stand by the President... - Theodore Roosevelt, Lincoln and Free Speech, Metropolitan Magazine, Volume 47, Number 6, May 1918.
Every Communist must grasp the truth. Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun. Our principle is that the Party commands the gun, and the gun must never be allowed to command the Party Mao Zedong, 6 November, 1938 - speech to the Communist Patry of China's sixth Central Committee
