                    COMMEMORATING THE FALL OF SAIGON

  (Mr. CORREA asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mr. CORREA. Mr. Speaker, today, I rise to commemorate the fall of 
Saigon, also known as Black April, on April 30.
  Today, the Vietnamese-American community is comprised of 
businessowners, teachers, police officers, and American soldiers. The 
Little Saigon community exemplifies the American Dream and has always 
stood for the land of opportunity.
  This Sunday marks 47 years since Vietnamese refugees came to America.
  Today, I ask my colleagues to remember the 58,000 American soldiers 
who made the ultimate sacrifice for freedom of Vietnam.
