                                 ______
                                 

                          HON. ELIOT L. ENGEL

                              of new york

                    in the house of representatives

                          Monday, July 8, 2013

  Mr. ENGEL. Mr. Speaker, throughout our nation's history our freedom 
has been preserved by members of the Armed Forces, and they continue to 
do so today. As a Member of Congress, I have consistently supported 
veterans and servicemen and women. They deserve no less from us. We owe 
the preservation of our freedoms and our way of life to the veterans 
who proudly served their country.
  Today I join the City of Yonkers at its annual Veterans Appreciation 
Day in honoring Frank R. Sullo, who served his country as an Army 
infantryman in Vietnam and who received the Bronze Star, Army 
Commendation Medal, National Defense Service Medal, Vietnam Service 
Medal, and the Vietnam Campaign Medal.
  He is a long time resident of Yonkers who attended Public School 18 
and graduated from Yonkers High School. He is an active member of the 
Empire Veterans of Foreign Wars, Post 375, and is a member of the 
American Legion and the Disabled American Veterans.
  With his wife, Pearl, and their children, Nicole and Frank, he has a 
lifetime of accomplishments that has enhanced his city. I am proud to 
join the City of Yonkers in honoring Frank Sullo, and thank him for his 
heroic service to our country.
