IN HONOR OF R.H. ``BOB'' GOLDBERG
(Ms. TITUS asked and was given permission to address the House for 1
minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
Ms. TITUS. Mr. Speaker, as Memorial Day approaches, I want to take
this opportunity to thank all of the brave men and women who have
served in our Armed Forces and to honor the cherished memories of those
who have made the ultimate sacrifice in defense of our precious
democratic way of life.
I also want to take a moment to honor a veteran who not only fought
for his country, but returned from war and dedicated his life to
helping veterans here at home. R.H. ``Bob'' Goldberg celebrated his
75th birthday just a few months ago, on October 8. I rise today to wish
him a belated happy birthday, and thank him for his service to our
Nation and for his tireless efforts on behalf of his fellow veterans in
southern Nevada.
Bob has served as commander of Post 711 of the Jewish War Veterans of
America, and worked for many years as an Indian Affairs Officer for the
State of Nevada. Bob personified valor on the battlefield and devotion
on the home front.
