Mr. Speaker, H.R. 3892, introduced by the gentleman from California (Mr. McClintock), would designate the facility of the United States Postal Service located at 8771 Auburn Folsom Road in Roseville, California, as the Lance Corporal Victor A. Dew Post Office. The bill is cosponsored by the entire California State delegation and was favorably reported by the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform on February 7. Mr. Speaker, it is altogether fitting and proper that we name this post office in Roseville, California, for Marine Corps Lance Corporal Dew, a true American hero who gave his life courageously defending our freedom. Mr. Speaker, Lance Corporal Dew and all of our brave and courageous fighting men and women are true heroes. There is no way a grateful Nation can adequately express our thanks to those who serve. However, naming this post office after Lance Corporal Dew is a small, but fitting, gesture to the brave men and women who are the reason that this country is free. Mr. Speaker, I urge my colleagues to join me in strong support of this bill, and I reserve the balance of my time.
