Mr. Gonzalez,
Sir, I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for our Country when you served with the U.S. Armed Forces during the Cold War: Millions of Americans slept safe at night because you and your fellow Servicemen and women stood ready to defend our Country. And to your Family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.
