                     PAYING TRIBUTE ON MEMORIAL DAY

  (Ms. FOXX asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Ms. FOXX. Mr. Speaker, next Monday, we will pause and pay tribute to 
the men and women who have died in service to our Nation.
  It is a solemn time: one for deep reflection, patriotism, and 
gratitude. This upcoming Saturday, members of the High Country chapter 
of the Military Officers Association of America will be honoring 
deceased military veterans for Memorial Day by placing 600 flags on 
their gravesites.
  Joining them will be members of The American Legion, ASU military 
staff, as well as local Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts. Mr. Speaker, seeing 
members of the High Country come together in this fashion is 
heartwarming.
  Let us never forget that we are blessed to live in the freest, 
greatest country in the world and that the selfless sacrifices made by 
those who have served should always be revered and recognized.
