        IN HONOR OF PHYLLIS HAHN'S RECOGNITION FOR HER OUTSTANDING WORK
                            SUPPORTING OUR VETERANS

                                     ______

                                HON. LIZ CHENEY

                                   of wyoming

                        in the house of representatives

                          Wednesday, January 10, 2018

      Ms. CHENEY. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to extend my congratulations to
    Phyllis Hahn on being recognized with twin Certificates of Commendation
    for her outstanding cooperation and participation in serving our
    veterans.
      Inspired by her family's long tradition of military service and the
    deep national patriotism and commitment to supporting our armed forces
    she grew up with during World War II, Phyllis has been dedicated to
    assisting and honoring our veterans for almost 70 years. Phyllis joined
    the American Legion Auxiliary Unit No. 1 at 15 and the Veterans of
    Foreign Wars Auxiliary No. 3511 one year later because she was too
    young to serve in the military herself. Since then, she has been an
    active and faithful member of both organizations, currently serving as
    the president of the American Legion Auxiliary and treasurer of the VFW
    Auxiliary.
      Phyllis' patriotism and dedication to supporting our veterans is
    exceptional. She understands the needs of our former servicemen and is
    committed to giving them the assistance they need and deserve. Phyllis
    has made an excellent example to her friends, her family, and people
    across our state.
      Again, Mr. Speaker, I would like to extend my congratulations to
    Phyllis Hahn for her recognition, and thank her for her commitment and
    many contributions to our veterans and to our great state.
