                        RECOGNIZING MARK CLEMONS

                                 ______
                                 

                       HON. LYNN A. WESTMORELAND

                               of georgia

                    in the house of representatives

                        Friday, December 8, 2006

  Mr. WESTMORELAND. Mr. Speaker, I rise to recognize a business in my 
district that is taking a positive step forward to assist families and 
our troops overseas.
  Mark Clemons operates the PakMail facility in my district in Newnan, 
and he has taken up a special project for our troops and their families 
overseas. Any time anyone wants to send a package to Iraq to a soldier, 
Mark makes sure that they do not have to pay for it.
  Mark has taken it as a special project to ensure our heroes overseas 
receive the care packages and support they so desperately need. Our men 
and women in combat need the touch of home, and Mark is doing something 
amazing to ensure that they are able to hear from all of us who support 
them here.
  Mark sets an example that everyone should follow--doing what they can 
to help and support our men and women. Everyone has a way they can 
help, and Mark has found that way and is implementing it.
  Mr. Speaker, we are grateful for all of our men and women, and those 
who ``hold the ropes'' for them back home, and we are grateful for 
Mark's service.
