                       Tuesday, February 6, 2018

  Mr. REICHERT. Mr. Speaker, today I rise to congratulate Wesley Peder 
Jensen on his 100th birthday.
  Born on February 6, 1918, Wesley has lived a full life, filled with 
adventure and service. He has witnessed many extraordinary historical 
events, from the Great Depression to the technology boom.
  Wesley is part of the greatest generation. He served our country in 
the United States Army as a Tech Sergeant from 1942 through the end of 
World War II in September of 1945. During that time, he served in 
Australia and New Guinea.
  In his dedication to his country and his community, Wesley has 
continued to make the world around him a better place throughout his 
lifetime.
  I join with his family, friends, and Washington's Eighth District in 
congratulating him on this special occasion and wishing him a wonderful 
birthday.
