                      Wednesday, November 13, 2019

  Mr. GIANFORTE. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize Dale 
Longfellow of Hobson, a recipient of the 2019 Montana Congressional 
Veteran Commendation for his service to his country and leadership in 
his community.
   Mr. Longfellow is a veteran of the United States Navy. He served 
from 1961 to 1964 with distinction on the USS Coral Sea CV 43 aircraft 
carrier. During his enlistment Dale earned nominations to the United 
States Naval Academy and the Merchant Marine Academy and attained the 
rank of Petty Officer Second Class.
   Mr. Longfellow has served his community in many ways. As a volunteer 
emergency medical technician, as mayor of Hobson, and as a dynamic 
businessman who for many years employed numerous people in the 
community.
   Mr. Longfellow is known as the person you go to for advice and the 
one you call if you're in a crisis. Those who know Mr. Longfellow use 
words like upright, moral and compassionate to describe him. He is a 
role model to his children and everyone else in his community.
   I ask my colleagues to join me today in commending Dale Longfellow 
for his dedication and service.
