Dated June 4, 1943, this Declaration of Intention is part of the naturalization record for actor Yul Brynner (listed as "Jules Bryner also Youl Bryner" on the form). The Declaration of Intention is filed with his Petition for naturalization, granting United States citizenship, and a Certificate of Arrival showing that he arrived on October 25, 1940 on the SS President Cleveland at the Port of San Francisco, California. Bryner signed his oath of allegiance on July 17, 1947.
These documents as well as those of other extraordinary and ordinary American citizens are on exhibit in our National Archives "Public Vaults."
