I thank my honorable friend from Arizona whose crusade against the debt is a true public service. He has spent countless hours in here educating the American people on the dangers of the debt for our country, and we should all be grateful. I thank him for this time. I also thank the folks here in the well who are working diligently to always take down the words that we say, take down our votes, and work day in and day out, allowing us to speak to the American people. As we are about to enter Memorial Day, I wanted to bring attention to someone that led me in my career in the Navy, that I fought with and remember fondly. His memorial service is going to be this Friday, so I would like to read his obituary and tell a quick story about a man that we all know and loved and adored. Bruce Fecht, born November 16, 1955, passed away March 16, 2025, Captain Bruce William Fecht, U.S. Navy, retired, a true American hero, passed away on March 16, 2025, at the age of 69.
