Congratulating Kellen Daly

Floor Speech

BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Mr. ALLEN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate my constituent, Kellen Daly, upon his acceptance to the United States Military Academy at West Point.

As a future cadet, he will be joining the ranks of the world's most fearsome fighting force--the United States Army--guided by duty, honor, and country.

The service and sacrifice of America's military personnel have safeguarded our Nation since its inception, defending our way of life from Lexington to Normandy.

And throughout our history, American soldiers have demonstrated tremendous courage and strength, beating back tyranny to the ends of the earth.

I was glad to sponsor Kellen's nomination and I am confident that his talents will distinguish him among his peers both during his time at West Point and thereafter.

Congratulations to Kellen, I know that he will make this Nation proud.
