           IN HONOR OF DISTINGUISHED WWII VETERAN JOHN GATTI

                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. LIZ CHENEY

                               of wyoming

                    in the house of representatives

                       Friday, September 6, 2019

  Ms. CHENEY. Madam Speaker, I rise today to congratulate and honor 
Rock Springs resident, and distinguished WWII veteran, John Gatti on 
his 100th birthday.
  Born August 29, 1919, John has served his country with honor in WWII 
as a member of the 325th Glider Infantry, 101st Airborne Division. When 
he returned to Wyoming after the war, he worked as miner for Union 
Pacific Coal, and then went on to work for Mountain Fuel Supply Company 
for twenty-eight years. As he prepares to turn 100, John is still the 
avid hunter and fisherman he has been his whole life. Loved by his 
family, and revered by his community, John represents the very best 
that our country has to offer.
  Again, Madam Speaker, I extend my congratulations to John Gatti on 
celebrating his 100th birthday and a heartfelt thank you for his 
service to our country.

                          ____________________
