                       Friday, February 17, 2023

  Mr. GAETZ. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to commemorate Captain Allen C. 
Brady, United States Navy, Retired, on the selfless life he has led 
during some of the most historical and pivotal moments of the past 
century. He has engaged in and witnessed events that have shaped our 
country, and his sacrifices in defense of our Nation and our freedoms 
cannot be overstated.
  His willingness to stand ready through nearly 30 years of service, 
his resolve during 2,237 days of captivity and torture in North 
Vietnam, and his selflessness in continuing his leadership and passing 
on his experience to junior ranks following his release, is nothing 
short of exemplary.
  On behalf of the entire Northwest Florida community and a grateful 
Nation, I would like to thank Captain Brady for his years of faithful 
service, devotion to duty, and commitment to excellence. His journey is 
one that will resound for years on what makes this country great.
  For all he did for his country, I am truly proud to have Captain 
Brady as a constituent in Florida's First Congressional District.
  Mr. Speaker, on behalf of the United States Congress, I am privileged 
to recognize Captain Allen C. Brady for his accomplishments and 
commitment to this country. I thank him for his service and offer my 
warmest regards and best wishes to him and his family.
