    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.
