             RECOGNIZING THE U.S. ARMY 2025 YEAR IN REVIEW

  (Mr. CARTER of Georgia asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. CARTER of Georgia. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the 
United States Army's remarkable 2025, defined by service, sacrifice, 
and strength; and filled with moments that showcase the character and 
resolve of our soldiers and support teams across the globe.
  In 2025, the Army marked its 250th birthday with community 
celebrations and tributes to the generations that defended our Nation. 
Its annual Year in Review also features stories of soldiers preparing 
for future challenges and meeting recruiting and retention goals well 
ahead of schedule, demonstrating renewed commitment and purpose and 
included in this Year in Review was Fort Stewart's Rock of the Marne.
  This retrospective honors those who served today and those who served 
before. It reminds us that our Army stands ready to protect the 
homeland, support partners, and uphold peace at home and abroad.
  Today, we celebrate the Army's achievements in 2025 and thank our 
soldiers for their enduring dedication to duty and to country.
