            RECOGNIZING THE GADSDEN HIGH SCHOOL JUNIOR ROTC

  (Mr. TEAGUE asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mr. TEAGUE. Madam Speaker, I rise today for the purpose of honoring 
the Gadsden High School Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps.
  On April 18, 2009, the Gadsden JROTC competed against 32 other teams 
from across the great State of New Mexico at Pedro Vista High School in 
Farmington, New Mexico. The competition consisted of the corps 
participating in air rifle, physical fitness and drill tests. Due to 
their discipline and commitment and dedication to their program, the 
Gadsden cadets bested their competition from across New Mexico for the 
second year in a row.
  I am proud and honored today to stand on the floor of the United 
States House of Representatives and say something that those students 
certainly deserve to hear: you are again the pride of your State, and 
congratulations on a job well done.
