                    in the house of representatives

                        Tuesday, August 14, 2018

  Ms. STEFANIK. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Spc. Claudia Brodeur 
as she deploys to Africa as a member of the United States Army 
Reserves.
  Spc. Brodeur, well-known by her community as a cheerful manager at 
the Pearl Street Pub in Watertown, New York, is off to Africa for her 
deployment as a proud member of the U.S. Army Reserves. A true patriot 
dedicated to both her local community and to her country, Spc. Brodeur 
will join the Combined Joint Task Force--Horn of Africa (CJTF-HOA). 
Under the CJTF-HOA, the United States works with its African partner 
nations to counter violent extremist organizations in East Africa, as 
well as build defense capability among its East African partners. Spc. 
Brodeur will support this important mission as a member of an 
attachment to the 403rd Civil Affairs Battalion in support of the 
Combined Task Force's mobilization and deployment efforts.
  On behalf of New York's 21st district, I want to join Spc. Brodeur's 
family and friends in wishing her well in Africa, and extend my thanks 
for her dedicated service to the United States.
