                        HON. THOMAS G. TANCREDO

                    in the house of representatives

                         Tuesday, July 24, 2007

  Mr. TANCREDO. Madam Speaker, I rise today to pay tribute to the 
commitment and patriotism of Mr. Scott Craig Stevens of Larkspur, 
Colorado, who will become an officer in the United States Marine Corps 
following his graduation from Officer Candidate School in August.
  Since 1891, officer training at Quantico, Virginia has successfully 
developed and molded America's young men and women into individuals of 
character; providing them with the physical, mental, and leadership 
qualities necessary to uphold and defend the virtue of liberty here in 
America and around the world. After thorough preparation, Mr. Stevens 
is now qualified and ready to command his fellow brothers and sisters 
at arms.
  Madam Speaker, I am honored to represent Mr. Stevens who has 
committed himself to our freedom. I urge you and my fellow colleagues 
to join me in congratulating Mr. Stevens and wishing him the best in 
the years to come.

                          ____________________
