RECOGNIZING THREE HEROES OF GUAM
The SPEAKER pro tempore. The Chair recognizes the gentleman from Guam
(Mr. Moylan) for 5 minutes.
Mr. MOYLAN. Mr. Speaker, I will take some time this morning to
recognize three heroes of Guam who are celebrating milestone birthdays
this month.
First, there is Mr. Troy Moylan, who is an icon within the business
community of Guam. A proud son, husband, father, brother, and family
man, Troy continues a tradition of the insurance industry, which is
synonymous with the Moylan name in Guam and within the Pacific region.
A healthcare czar who has advanced the medical insurance industry in
Guam, ensuring greater care for women and children and expanding
services to regions with indigent communities, he has helped grow
Guam's economy by creating jobs and increasing investments. His
generosity to the people of Guam has been evident in many great causes
and organizations.
Troy is a great conservative, a decent man, and a proud fan of the
Pittsburgh Steelers.

Secondly, I recognize Daniel and David Taitano, also known as the
Dinga's. Just to place it on the record, the term ``dinga''' refers to
twins. These two heroes have served the people of Guam in the
capacities of firefighter and customs officer.
Daniel is a longtime firefighter in Guam and has placed himself in
harm's way to protect his community. From battling wildfires to
reassuring individuals in unsafe conditions to delivering kids in
ambulances as an EMT, this hero is an icon in Guam.
Daniel is famous for ensuring that his brothers and sisters in the
fire stations are well fed, as he is a renowned cook. Daniel is also a
decent man, a proud son, a good sibling, and certainly a favorite uncle
to numerous nieces and nephews. He is also a fan of the Pittsburgh
Steelers.
His brother David has been protecting Guam's community and our
borders as a lieutenant in the Guam Customs and Quarantine Agency for
many years. His efforts have resulted in the interception of drugs and
other contraband entering the island, and he has worked diligently to
protect Guam's economy through the seizure of counterfeit goods.
David has placed himself in harm's way too many times, but he has
always stated that it was for the betterment of his community and his
island. He is also a decent man, a proud son, a good sibling, and
another favorite uncle. This fan of the Dallas Cowboys continues to
strive to protect our island.
From these historic and sacred Halls of democracy, and on behalf of a
thankful Nation and the island of Guam, I thank Troy, Daniel, and David
for their service to our community and wish them a happy birthday.
