                        Monday, October 21, 2019

  Mr. NORCROSS. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor and commend 
Gibbsboro, New Jersey resident Marty Seroter, Camden County Town Hall 
Veteran Honoree.
   After graduating from High School, in the late 1960s, Mr. Marty 
Seroter proudly enlisted and served in the United States Army. During 
his time of service, Mr. Seroter was stationed in Germany where he 
earned the rank of Specialist E-4 and as a musician, gladly served in 
the United States Army Band.
   Following his return stateside, Mr. Seroter continued to serve his 
community through his career with Camden County as a Clerk Driver and 
Messenger for more than two decades. Through his distinguished career 
and lifetime of public service, and as an American Legion Post Bugler, 
Mr. Seroter actively participates in countless events performing Taps 
for formal County ceremonies, such as the Pearl Harbor Day services 
held annually on the Battleship New Jersey in the City of Camden and 
the County Memorial Day ceremony held to honor veterans and those 
interred at Potter's Field.
   As a dedicated public servant, today and for the past 30 years, Mr. 
Seroter continues his service as an active member of the American 
Legion Post 371 Honor Guard. Serving his community and fellow veterans 
at the American Legion Post, Mr. Seroter presently oversees the Legion 
Hall rentals and manages the canteen and continues to participate in 
the Presentation of the Colors and Taps at formal ceremonies as the 
Post Bugler.
   In recognition of his valiant and distinguished service to our 
nation, Mr. Seroter was awarded and has humbly received the National 
Defense Service Medal for his honorable active service as a member of 
the Armed Forces.
   Madam Speaker, I ask you to join me in honoring Mr. Marty Seroter of 
Gibbsboro, New Jersey who is a constant reminder of the sacrifices that 
our men and women of the Armed Forces make to protect and defend the 
liberty and freedom of all Americans.
