 HONORING THE SOLDIERS OF BRAVO COMPANY, 3RD BATTALION, 124TH INFANTRY 
                 REGIMENT, FLORIDA ARMY NATIONAL GUARD

  Mr. SCOTT of Florida. Madam President, I rise today to honor the 
soldiers of Bravo Company (Wolfpack), 3rd Battalion (Warrior), 124th 
Infantry Regiment Florida Army National Guard. This year marks the 20th 
anniversary since Bravo Company was deployed to the Middle East. The 
137 soldiers were the first Florida Guardsmen deployed to war since 
World War II.
  These brave soldiers conducted thousands of patrols, hundreds of 
checkpoints, performed raids, and participated in countless supporting 
operations. Most importantly, all soldiers returned home. These 
soldiers earned their Combat Infantryman Badge and their Presidential 
Unit Citation.
  I want to welcome them to Pensacola, FL, 20 years after being 
downrange protecting our great Nation. As a Navy veteran and the son of 
a World War II veteran, I know firsthand the sacrifices made by our 
military members and their families. Thank you for your service; your 
courage and dedication to our country will never be forgotten.
