Mike, Chris, and Joey Britton founded Artillery Tea Co. with veterans and first responders in mind. The youngest brother, Joey, is a 9-year Army veteran, giving the brothers firsthand access to these organizations. The company launched on July Fourth last year and is now spreading the word and their mission to ``be able to support vets the best we can.'' One of the groups they donate to is Gold Star Families. This group supports families of fallen soldiers. They also work with Project Lakeview, a group out of Delaware focused on supporting families of fallen first responders. Mr. Speaker, the brothers work with a partner in Pennsylvania to manufacture the product, allowing them to keep everything as local as possible. Tea can be ordered from artilleryteaco.com and can be shipped anywhere. On Memorial Day and every day, we should remember the great sacrifice our men and women make to protect our freedoms and keep us safe. Artillery Tea Co. focuses on continuing to support the families of those whose loved ones paid the ultimate sacrifice. ____________________”
