                HONORING THE LOUISIANA HONORAIR VETERANS

                                 ______
                                 

                      HON. CHARLES W. BOUSTANY JR.

                              of louisiana

                    in the house of representatives

                       Thursday, October 25, 2007

  Mr. BOUSTANY. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize and honor a 
very special group from South Louisiana.
  On October 27, 2007 a group of 97 veterans and their guardians will 
fly to Washington with a very special program. Louisiana HonorAir is 
providing the opportunity for these veterans from my home State of 
Louisiana to visit Washington, DC on a chartered flight free of charge. 
During their visit, they will visit Arlington National Cemetery and the 
World War II Memorial. For many, this will be their first and only 
opportunity to see these sights dedicated to the great service they 
have provided for our Nation.
  Today I ask my colleagues to join me in honoring these great 
Americans and thanking them for their unselfish service.
