                          Friday, July 6, 2018

  Mr. DONOVAN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the service of 
Corporal Alex Neube.
  After joining the United States Army in 1951, Mr. Neube was deployed 
to Korea, where he fought courageously and quickly ascended to the rank 
of Corporal. During his tour of duty in the Korean War, he was involved 
in an intense firefight with opposing forces in which he was injured. 
Yet after recovering in a military hospital, Corporal Neube would 
return to the battlefield to complete the valiant effort of liberating 
our ally and defending democracy.
  After the completion of his tour in 1953, he returned to the United 
States, and was placed in the ready reserves where he remained until 
honorably discharged in 1957. Upon his exit from the military, he 
married Estelle Mangin. Together, they would raise six children. 
Growing through adolescence with the values of his father, their 
youngest, Brian, was inspired to enlist in the United States Air Force, 
where he would remain until 2014, retiring at the rank of Master 
Sergeant.
  Corporal Neube is the perfect example of an ideal soldier. Honor. 
Duty. Sacrifice. These values embody everything Corporal Neube stands 
for. Without the courage of Americans like him, we would have no one to 
uphold our values and defend our freedoms so that our democratic ideals 
may exist in peace.
  Mr. Speaker, I am honored to recognize such a deserving man, Corporal 
Alex Neube. I thank him for his patriotism, and I salute him for 
everything he has done for this great nation.
