  Ms. LOFGREN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today with my colleague, 
Congresswoman Anna Eshoo, to honor the 100th Annual Memorial Day 
Service in our community and to take a moment to remember those in our 
military who selflessly sacrificed their lives for our nation.
  This year, the United Veterans Council of Santa Clara County will 
help conduct the 100th Memorial Day Service in our community to 
recognize and celebrate, with gratitude and appreciation, the fallen 
heroes of our U.S. Armed Forces.
  We acknowledge that through their heroism, our service members 
protected our freedom and fostered the safety and prosperity that we 
enjoy as a nation. We remember also the families of all those who 
perished in service to our country, and express our gratitude to them.
  Mr. Speaker, we hereby recognize and commend those members of our 
U.S. Armed Forces, who have lost their lives in service of our country, 
as well as their family and communities, who supported their service 
for our country. During our 100th Memorial Day Service, our community 
comes together to remember those who dedicated their lives to preserve 
and protect our way of life and our future.
