             HAPPY 100TH BIRTHDAY TO THURSTON EDWARD QUINN

  (Mr. DAVIS of North Carolina asked and was given permission to 
address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. DAVIS of North Carolina. Madam Speaker, I rise to recognize and 
honor Thurston Quinn, who turned 100 years old.
  Mr. Quinn has been a central figure in our veterans community. He 
served in the 89th Infantry Division during World War II, fighting in 
France and Germany. He had a distinguished service career, receiving 
two Bronze Stars, a Combat Infantry Badge, and an Occupation Badge. 
When the war ended, he returned home, and he continued to serve his 
community.
  Mr. Quinn's legacy is preserved at the Disabled American Veterans 
office in Goldsboro, where the cafeteria bears his name. What a true 
American hero.
  It was a pleasure to join his family and friends at his church to 
wish him a 100th birthday.
