Bill > HR5362

This bill proposes to rename the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) multispecialty clinic located at 1263 Cobb Parkway NW in Marietta, Georgia, as the "Colonel Michael H. Boyce Department of Veterans Affairs Multispecialty Clinic" in honor of Colonel Mike Boyce, a distinguished Marine Corps veteran. The bill includes a detailed biographical section highlighting Boyce's military service, which spanned from 1971 to 2001 and included deployments to multiple locations such as Turkey, Somalia, Bahrain, and Oman. After his military retirement, Boyce was actively involved in his community, serving on various veterans' organizations, participating in charities like Habitat for Humanity, and serving as chairman of the Cobb County Board of Commissioners from 2016 to 2020. During his time as commissioner, he was instrumental in establishing the county's first Veterans Service Office and worked to make Veterans Day a paid holiday for county employees. The bill ensures that all future references to this VA clinic in official documents, laws, and records will use the new name, thereby permanently memorializing Colonel Boyce's contributions to veterans and his community.
