                    in the house of representatives

                         Tuesday, June 14, 2016

  Mr. PERLMUTTER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and applaud 
Colin Lee for his leadership, hard work and dedication on behalf of the 
2015-2016 Veterans History Project documentary film produced by the 
students and faculty of Westminster High School in Westminster, 
Colorado.
  The film, MEDIC!, highlights the stories of five brave veterans who 
served their country and their fellow veterans as combat medics. As a 
result of the work of Colin and his students, these veterans' stories 
will forever be preserved in the Library of Congress American Folklife 
Center. Colin was an integral part of making the film and provided 
invaluable support to the project and his students during the research, 
interview and production phases.
  Colin has been a teacher for more than 20 years, including the past 
15 years in Adams County School District 50. Throughout his career as a 
teacher, he's been heavily involved in student activities inside and 
outside the classroom including a Student Council Sponsor, Class 
Sponsor, track coach, International Baccalaureate Coordinator and Dean 
of Students. Currently, Colin serves as the sponsor of the National 
Honor Society. He earned his BS Education degree in History from 
Missouri State University.
  I extend my deepest appreciation to Colin Lee for his hard work and 
dedication to the 2015-2016 Veterans History Project documentary film 
and for his contribution to the lives of so many students in our 
community.
