                   HONORING THE HEROIC MOYER BROTHERS

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. SEAN P. DUFFY

                              of wisconsin

                    in the house of representatives

                        Wednesday, July 18, 2018

  Mr. DUFFY. Mr. Speaker, I proudly rise today to celebrate and 
commemorate the service of the seven Moyer brothers who fought in World 
War II. For a single family to send seven members to serve our nation 
in its time of need, they must have had a great love for America and 
what it stands for.
  Franklin, Charles, Hile, James, Jay, Leonard, and Leslie, the 
children of Charles and Nina Moyer, were born and raised in Bass Lake 
Township, Washburn County. The brothers represented Wisconsin in almost 
every distinct branch of the military, serving in the Navy, Army, 
Merchant Marines, and Army Air Corps.
  It is with great gratitude that I recognize these fine men who have 
made not only Wisconsin proud, but also the nation as a whole. Seven 
brothers. Seven stories. Seven immeasurable contributions to freedom, 
all from Wisconsin's 7th Congressional District.
  On behalf of my family and Wisconsinites in every corner of our 
state, I would like to express my sincerest thanks to the Moyer 
brothers for their service to our nation when we needed them the most.
