                            OPERATION EAGLE

  (Mr. SANFORD asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. SANFORD. Mr. Speaker, this holiday season, I want to pay special 
tribute to those in the military who will be far from their family and 
friends. I also want to pass on a way that we can all thank them.
  For the last 12 years, Bill Herrmann of Ladson, SC, has directed 
Operation: Eagle, which encourages people to send cards and letters to 
overseas service men and women. Through his efforts, thousands of cards 
and letters have been delivered to those who might otherwise feel alone 
and far from home this holiday season. This season, Operation: Eagle is 
concentrating on serving military personnel in and around Bosnia.
  I encourage everyone to send cards and letters to this address: ATTN: 
Any Soldier, Task Force Eagle, APO AE 09135.
  This is the least that we can do to thank service men and women for 
their sacrifices.
