  Mr. EDWARDS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Mary K. Clark as she 
celebrated her 102nd birthday on August 9, 2023.
  Ms. Clark proudly served our country as a World War II Navy 
Lieutenant. During the war, she worked on a triage group as an 
operating room nurse stationed in the Pacific Theater.

While serving in the Navy she met her loving husband, Edward L. Clark. 
The couple was married for 65 wonderful years. Ms. Clark now resides in 
Candler, North Carolina.
  It is my honor to recognize her today.
