Madam Speaker, today I want to show my appreciation for the Veterans of Foreign Wars Post of Bridgeton in south Jersey. This community provides a space for veterans to come together and connect with others, and these are other folks who understand the hardships and the rewards of serving our Nation. The Veterans of Foreign Wars meet monthly to share their experiences and bond with one another in Bridgeton. They also organize special services for holidays, like Memorial Day and Veterans Day, so the members can commemorate these days together. In addition, the VFW reaches out to the greater Bridgeton community by hosting barbecues, community dinners, and other festivals to connect with their neighbors and sometimes raise funds for important charitable causes. I would like to thank the brave veterans of the Bridgeton VFW. Their service to our Nation is tremendous. I am overjoyed that this community has given them a safe place to remember their service together. Madam Speaker, they are our best; they are our shining stars; and they are our heroes. May God bless them. ____________________
