               IN RECOGNITION OF PLYMOUTH'S FALLEN HEROES

                                 ______
                                 

                        HON. WILLIAM R. KEATING

                            of massachusetts

                    in the house of representatives

                        Thursday, June 26, 2014

  Mr. KEATING. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Plymouth's four 
fallen soldiers who died during the Vietnam War, and to recognize the 
Vietnam Fallen Soldier Uniform Ceremony being held next week.
  During the Vietnam War, Plymouth lost four of its own citizens who 
answered the call of duty. These selfless individuals will be 
memorialized by family, friends, and neighbors in their hometown at 
Plymouth's Vietnam Fallen Soldier Uniform Ceremony on July 3, 2014. 
Today, I would like to express my gratitude for their service by 
presenting the names of the fallen:
  Staff Sergeant Frederick T. Garside, U.S. Air Force--killed in action 
in Laos
  Specialist Five Robert B. Hedge, U.S. Army--killed in action in Bien 
Hoa
  Lance Corporal Wayne Moore, U.S. Army--killed in action in Quang Tri
  HM3 Paul Rezendes, U.S. Navy--killed in action in Quang Tri
  These courageous, distinguished men embodied the best ideals of our 
country and dedicated their lives to its security. I know I speak for 
many when I say that the memory of these four men will live on as an 
inspiration to us all and will serve as a reminder of what it means to 
serve one's country.
  Mr. Speaker, it is a great honor to recognize the outstanding 
sacrifice that these veterans made for their country. I ask that my 
colleagues join me in this remembrance, and in thanking all of our 
service members deployed across the globe.
