“today I am first up for a 1-hour special order, and it is one that I have been trying to do before my fellow Members in this esteemed body and that growing audience of 1,300,000 caring Americans across the country through the courtesy of C-SPAN, and it is going to be on the Battle of the Bulge. Fortunately, I was able to get over to Europe in December with the Secretary of the Army, and I was a little bit saddened that no Member of the other Chamber, of the United States Senate, or any other Member of the House was able to get over there on December 16, which was the beginning of the last major Army offensive move in the West of the war, and it took the lives of between 16,000 Americans killed in action, to 19,000, depending on when one determines what was the cutoff of this offensive, and it was fought in the dead of winter, under snow cover, and I hope that people will turn off O.J. Simpson's trial and watch this special order. Mr. Speaker, this is what America is all about, remembering those who gave their lives for our freedom.”
