  Mr. VISCLOSKY. Madam Speaker, it is with great pleasure that I stand 
before you today to honor one of America's finest organizations, the 
American Legion, and to recognize one of its local Auxiliary units, 
Roselawn American Legion Auxiliary Unit 238, as they recognize their 
newly elected officials. The members of the American Legion Auxiliary 
Unit 238, as well as the Legioneers and the Sons of the American 
Legion, will be recognizing these individuals at the Installation of 
Officers Awards Dinner held on Wednesday, June 2, 2010 at the American 
Legion Post 238 in Roselawn, Indiana.
  For many years, Roselawn American Legion Post 238 has been an 
extraordinary example of the ideals and mission of the American Legion. 
The American Legion Auxiliary was established in 1919 to assist the 
American Legion and has quickly become the world's largest women's 
patriotic service organization. For volunteering many hours to our 
American veterans and to the community of Roselawn, as well as all of 
Northwest Indiana, the American Legion Auxiliary Unit 238 and its newly 
elected officers are to be honored.
  Please join me in recognizing the 2010-2011 newly elected officers 
for the Auxiliary Unit 238: Tina Stevens--President, Elizabeth 
Albright--First Vice President, Roxanne Hepworth--Second Vice 
President, Jane Bower--Recording/Corresponding Secretary, Adrian 
Mandernach--Chaplain, Natalie Haber-Barker--Historian and 
Parliamentarian, Lupe Hinch--Sergeant-At-Arms, and Jeannette Sutton, 
Nancy Lanier, and Phyllis Lindley--Executive Board Members.
  Madam Speaker, I ask that you and my other distinguished colleagues 
join me in recognizing the American Legion Auxiliary Unit 238 and its 
newly elected officers. I also ask that you join me in honoring its 
membership for their service to their community, its veterans, and 
their devotion to the ideals of the American Legion.
