  Mr. GIBBS. Mr. Speaker, I am honored to recognize Mr. Conrad Conway's 
brave service in the Navy during World War II. His fight to protect our 
freedoms and liberties is cherished by our entire nation.
  Mr. Conway served in the Pacific Theater during the Second World War 
as a Signalman in the Navy. For his bravery in the line of duty, Mr. 
Conway earned the Distinguished Service Cross and the Bronze Star. He 
and his fellow Seamen's service in the Pacific was documented in Life 
Magazine, a tribute to the heroes who fought imperialism.
  When Mr. Conway returned to the United States, he worked for Cooper 
Industries in Mount Vernon, Ohio. A devoted member of the community, 
Mr. Conway served as City Council President for nearly 30 years and was 
deeply involved in several veterans associations. He is the proud 
father of nine children, several grandchildren, and even great-
children.
  Mr. Speaker, on behalf of the citizens of Ohio's 7th Congressional 
District, I would like to thank Conrad Conway for his service. Our 
country is forever indebted to the sacrifices he made to defend our 
freedoms.
