I yield back. Gentlemen's time's expired. I now recognize the gentleman from Rhode Island Magaziner for five minutes. Questions?

I haven't either. But I think you and I can agree that as Americans, we owe everything to those who have served our country in uniform, particularly those who have served in combat. (00:19–00:24)
