congressmen sam johnson and we also have congressman charlie rangel.for your leadership. [applause] and let me just say something about this group. their service in uniform was extraordinary over generations. as an iraq war veteran of this generation and now in this role, it's the korean war generation and the vietnam generation that made sure when my generation came home, we were welcomed with open arms, and we owe you a debt of gratitude for welcoming us home and making us feel like brothers. thank you so very much, every single one of you. [applause] as speaker ryan said, it could have been easy to look down. it could have been easy to turn your back. it could have been easy to put that uniform away and not serve anymore. but every single one of you showed what it means to be an american soldier. to be a soldier for life. that when you wore the cloth of our country, the love of our nation is stamped in your heart forever. and you continue to serve. you continue to be civic assets to our community, all over the world. when speaker ryan told that stor
