                     HONORING CLIFFORD JOHNSON, SR.

  (Ms. BARRAGAN asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Ms. BARRAGAN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in honor of Mr. Clifford 
Johnson, Sr., who will be 100 years old on June 7.
  Mr. Johnson, a Cherokee Indian Freedman, was born in Lenapah, 
Oklahoma, on June 7, 1918. He fought bravely during World War II, 
serving as a staff sergeant in the U.S. Army. He began a lifelong 
career with the United States Postal Service in 1946.
  Mr. Johnson is a loving father, grandfather, and great-grandfather. 
Mr. Johnson is a patron of Macedonia Baptist Church in Watts, 
California, and attributes his longevity to being close to God and 
treating other people the way he would want to be treated.
  I want to wish Mr. Clifford Johnson, Sr., a very happy birthday and 
thank him for his service to our country.
