Well, I just wanted to wish you a happy birthday, and I wanted to tell you that I'm proud of you, and I'm very grateful that our country has had someone like you---- Mr. Maggio. Thank you.

You've been very fortunate, haven't you? Mr. Maggio. I've been very fortunate with my family. Got a beautiful family. And all--all of the boys that were servicemen--ex-servicemen-- all have been servicemen.

And a lot of grandchildren there? Mr. Maggio. I got grandchildren and a great-grandchild here. It's the fifth generation.

You were at Pearl Harbor, weren't you? Mr. Frizzell. Yes. Ms. Forgey. My husband was at Pearl Harbor. Mr. Frizzell. Camp Cameron--about a mile and a half from Pearl Harbor.

They thought I needed a mental examination for doing it, but it was a great morning. [Laughter] Mr. Frizzell. I walked over to the 9 building, and ended up in the 31 building, and I'll never tell you how in the hell I did that.

Kansas. Ms. Forgey. That's right. I don't know one State from the other. It's wonderful to talk to you. How nice of you to do this.
