WORLD WAR II VETERAN SERGEANT HARRISON DOYLE
(Mr. BILIRAKIS asked and was given permission to address the House
for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. BILIRAKIS. Mr. Speaker, today, I rise to talk about one of my
heroic constituents, World War II veteran Sergeant Harrison Doyle.
Sergeant Doyle was assigned the task of recreating maps as a
cartographer based on the remains of destroyed Nazi maps and aerial
photography.
Sergeant Doyle served in three theaters, including the Battle of the
Bulge. His contributions were crucial in recreating the topography into
maps that were used to win the Battle of the Bulge.
Dedicated caseworkers in my office were able to help him recover lost
personnel records. They worked tirelessly to get Sergeant Doyle's
personnel records and medals, including the European-African-Middle
East Campaign with Bronze Star attachment to give him the recognition
he deserves.
I am honored to represent Sergeant Doyle. Helping heroes like him and
any constituents being stonewalled by a Federal agency makes this job
more meaningful.
