  Ms. GRAHAM. Mr. Speaker, today, I'd like to recognize Operation Thank 
You, an annual event honoring veterans and active-duty service members 
in Leon County.
  As we mark the 65th anniversary of our nation's entry in the Korean 
War, the 2015 Operation Thank You will honor Korean War veterans and 
their families at the Florida Korean War Memorial in Tallahassee on 
Saturday, May 16th.
  The event will include a presentation of colors by the Godby High 
School JROTC Color Guard, a performance of the national anthem by the 
Lawton Chiles High School Choir, and remarks by Korean War veterans--
along with a pancake breakfast.
  Leon County has a long tradition of supporting local veterans and 
making sure they receive the care they deserve.
  Mr. Speaker, on behalf of the United States Congress, I extend our 
deepest appreciation to all of those working to make this year's 
Operation Thank You a success.
