“Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Montana veterans who have served our country and continue their service in our communities. I recently asked Montanans to nominate a veteran for the 2017 Montana Congressional Veteran Commendation, a tribute to recognize those who have served honorably in uniform and in our communities. The response from Montanans was overwhelming. Fourteen veterans are receiving the 2017 Montana Congressional Veteran Commendation: Richard Allgood of Big Sky; Gene Bell of Belgrade; William Charles of De Borgia; Richard Gale of Bozeman; Gary Germundson of Scobey; Theron Gertz of Butte; Michael Lawson of Butte; Phillip Lyons of Butte; Daniel Ritter of Bozeman; Frank Stoltz of Miles City; Kevin Strickler of Belgrade; Kyle Sukhbir of Livingston; Loice Trotter of Libby; Stanley Watson of Forsyth. On behalf of all Montanans, I thank the recipients of the 2017 Montana Congressional Veteran Commendation for their sacrifices and selfless service. ____________________”
