  Mr. LAMBORN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to pay tribute to VFW Post 101 
in downtown Colorado Springs on the occasion of their 95th Anniversary.
  As the oldest and friendliest post in the city, Post 101 has 
positively impacted the lives of tens of thousands of local veterans 
and their families.
  The post helps welcome home troops, attends memorial services, hosts 
retirement and promotion parties, provides scholarships to local 
students, advocates for our veterans, promotes patriotism, and supports 
family members during difficult deployments.
  Please join me in wishing VFW Post 101 a happy anniversary and 
thanking them for the tremendously important services they provide to 
our military community.
