  Mr. MOSKOWITZ. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Mr. J.W. 
Arnold, the President and Executive Director of Fleet Week Miami and 
Broward Navy Day for his endless work in Broward County, Florida.
  In 2020, Mr. Arnold assumed the role of Executive Director of Broward 
Navy Days Inc., a position from which he orchestrated the support of 
local community organizations, businesses, and government agencies. His 
efforts were instrumental in bringing to life the remarkable events of 
Fleet Week, which served as a platform for South Florida to express its 
gratitude and support for our Marines, Coast Guardsmen, Reservists, 
Sailors, and veterans. Mr. Arnold's involvement with Broward Navy Days 
spans over a decade, during which he spearheaded public relations and 
marketing, public ship tour ticketing, and major public events such as 
the Pearl Harbor Memorial Service and the Air and Sea Show.
  Furthermore, Mr. Arnold is a veteran of the U.S. Marine Corps. He was 
the public affairs specialist for ``The President's Own'' United States 
Marine Band, coordinating two national tours, including performances at 
the White House and the Kennedy Center. J.W. Arnold also receives the 
2024 ``Patriot of the Year'' Award.
  Mr. Speaker, please join me in recognizing Mr. J.W. Arnold, the 
President and Executive Director of Fleet Week Miami and Broward Navy 
Day, for his outstanding work in Florida's 23rd Congressional District.
