    HONORING DONALD KACZYNSKI'S CONTRIBUTIONS TO ARKANSAS' DISABLED 
                                VETERANS

  (Mr. CRAWFORD asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mr. CRAWFORD. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor Donald Kaczynksi 
from my home State of Arkansas. Donald is a Marine veteran with a 
passion for serving other veterans who are living with a disability.
  After receiving an honorable discharge from the Marines, Donald was 
faced with the challenge of finding a new career. He saw firsthand the 
obstacles disabled veterans face and knew he wanted to help other 
veterans have a higher quality of life.
  After moving to Hot Springs Village, Arkansas, he started a mobile 
concession stand business. With his business, Donald drives to events 
throughout Arkansas, providing concessions for veterans' gatherings.
  In addition to his business, Donald serves Arkansas' veterans as 
commander and adjutant of the Hot Springs Village VFW. Most recently, 
Donald was elected to serve as the 2011 2012 State commander of the 
Disabled American Veterans Department of Arkansas. In 2004, Donald was 
recognized as the VFW Man of the Year for Arkansas, and in 2008 as the 
Disabled American Veterans Man of the Year.
  Madam Speaker, we honor Donald Kaczynski and his service to Arkansas' 
veterans.
