American Legion Post 1836 on receiving their charter from the American 
Legion Department of Virginia. This new Post, located in the heart of 
Lovettsville, Virginia, will play a vital role in supporting the 
Lovettsville community of veterans, active military and their families 
by offering support and camaraderie as well as honoring the many 
sacrifices of service members at local community events such as this 
past Memorial Day and Fourth of July. This kind of community service is 
extremely inspiring to see in Virginia's 10th District as this American 
Legion Post will improve the quality of life for Virginians and bring 
awareness of the incredible sacrifices made every day by our service 
members.
  I would like to give special recognition to Post Commander, Nathaniel 
Fontaine, as well as American Legion Officers: Lizzy Fontaine, Harold 
Baker, David Steadman, Scott Barton and Nick Hayward. These officers 
are an inspiration to men and women everywhere, and their efforts to 
the American Legion Post are truly honorable.
  With the chartering of this Post, our Lovettsville community takes 
another step forward in the care and service to our Veterans and 
service members. I look forward to the positive impact this American 
Legion Post will have upon all individuals in Virginia's 10th 
Congressional District.
  Mr. Speaker, I take great pride in celebrating with you and our 
colleagues the establishment of American Legion Post 1836. I ask that 
you join me in congratulating the entire leadership and I wish them all 
the best in their future endeavors.
