  Ms. HART. Mr. Speaker, I would like to take this opportunity to 
recognize some of the brave men and women of our community and their 
families on the Fourth of July 2006.
  On this day, our forefathers stood up to oppose tyranny, and these 
men were willing to fight for freedom and liberty. These men made 
difficult sacrifices for these principles. Today the battle for freedom 
is not over, and those tough sacrifices are still being made. It is 
only fitting that today we show our support and honor these patriots.

Schlieper; from the United States Army: SPC Bruce Liptak, SP1 John 
Moan, SPC Scott Meehan, E-4 David Michael Hallwirth, and SGT Eric 
Klemm; from the United States Marines: PFC Michael J. Powell II, COL

United States National Guard: CAP Edward Bartsch; from the United 
States Navy: Seaman Christopher Jazbinsek and 1LT Anthony DiBucci.
  I ask my colleagues in the United States House of Representatives to 
join me in honoring these courageous soldiers on this day of 
celebrating our Independence. It is an honor to represent the Fourth 
Congressional District of Pennsylvania and a pleasure to salute these 
great Americans.
