[Congressional Record Volume 162, Number 100 (Wednesday, June 22, 2016)] [Extensions of Remarks] [Page E973] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [www.gpo.gov] ANNOUNCING THE RECIPIENTS OF THE 2016 CONGRESSIONAL VETERAN COMMENDATION FOR THE 16TH DISTRICT OF ILLINOIS ______ HON. ADAM KINZINGER of illinois in the house of representatives Wednesday, June 22, 2016 Mr. KINZINGER of Illinois. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the 2016 recipients of the Congressional Veteran Commendation in the 16th District of Illinois. The eight veterans receiving this commendation have served this country honorably and fought for the freedoms we hold dearly. These veterans answered their country's call during World War II, the Korean War, and the Vietnam War, and they served with honor and distinction. As a fellow war veteran, I thank them for their patriotism and sacrifices on behalf of our nation. After these veterans served their country, they came home to serve their communities. They are civic leaders, active citizens, and many continue to serve their military brothers and sisters through veteran service organizations. Although their mission has changed since returning to civilian life, their leadership and tenacity have not. The recipients of the 2016 Congressional Veteran Commendation are: Lance Corporal Glenn Borvansky of Marseilles, IL; Seaman Charles R. Brown of Diamond, IL; Sergeant John F. Duback of Ottawa, IL; Specialist Four Wayne A. Eichelkraut of Ottawa, IL; Sergeant Mervin Eutis of Grand Ridge, IL; Master Sergeant Glen Maubach of Blackstone, IL; Specialist Five Harold R. Olsen of Arlington, IL; and Specialist Five Richard Sanders of Dixon, IL. I am honored to be able to recognize these notable veterans. The recipients of this commendation serve as the embodiment of both military and civil service, and it is my hope they will inspire the next generation. ____________________
