                                 ______
                                 

                          HON. GREG GIANFORTE

                               of montana

                    in the house of representatives

                      Thursday, December 13, 2018

  Mr. GIANFORTE. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Louis Loader of 
Hobson, a recipient of the 2018 Montana Congressional Veteran 
Commendation for his service to his country and leadership in his 
community.
  Mr. Loader served his country proudly in the United States Navy as an 
Operations Specialist aboard the U.S.S. Boxer. He was on active duty in 
the Korean Theater during the Korean War. He also served for 6 years in 
the U.S. Navy Reserve, retiring from duty in 1960.
  Mr. Loader's contributions to his small community of Hobson are felt 
on many levels. He is appreciated by the elderly in town for 
voluntarily cutting their grass or meeting their needs no matter what 
the call.
  He is appreciated by the fire and rescue personal for being a willing 
volunteer and responding to emergencies in the remote Sapphire Village 
area.
  Mr. Loader is appreciated as a ``model citizen'' and an ``integral 
part of this small community,'' says Hobson neighbor Christy Potter.
  I ask my colleagues to join me today in commending Louis Loader for 
his dedication and service.
