Bill > HR9997

This bill proposes to name the Department of Veterans Affairs community-based outpatient clinic in Toms River, New Jersey, as the "Leonard G. 'Bud' Lomell, Jr. VA Clinic" in honor of a local World War II hero and long-time Toms River resident. The bill provides background on Lomell's military service and civic involvement, highlighting his heroic actions during the D-Day invasion and subsequent decorations, and notes that he is profiled in Tom Brokaw's "The Greatest Generation" as a dedicated war veteran and model citizen deserving of this posthumous recognition.
