Memorial Day 2004
"This weekend, hundreds of thousands of veterans will descend
on Washington to celebrate the dedication of the newest
memorial in our nation’s capital. This long-overdue tribute to
those who made the greatest sacrifice for our freedom in World
War II reminds us of the many fallen soldiers in our country’s history
as well as our gratitude to them.
"I would like to personally thank all the men and women who have
served in our armed forces over the decades, during times of both war and
peace. And as we remember those from times past, let us also
remember, with prayers and best wishes, the American soldiers and their
families who are making the same sacrifices around the world today."
--Congresswoman Loretta Sanchez
