  Mr. KILDEE. Mr. Speaker, I ask the United States House of

Army 87th Infantry

Division, the ``Golden Acorns,'' from 1942 through 1945. On this date, 
at the age of 92, Mr. Dumont traveled from his home in Flint, Michigan 
to Washington, D.C. in order to tour and pay homage at the World War II 
Memorial. To that effect, Mr. Dumont pays honor to the war to which he 
was a witness and remembers those known and unknown lost throughout the 
war. Therefore, he encourages all Americans to cherish and honor the 
sacrifice borne by our men and women in uniform from all theaters and 
eras.
  Mr. Speaker, I applaud Mr. Roy Dumont for his service and unyielding 
commitment to the nation.
