I am again pleased to join with my many friends of Polish descent who honor the memory of Gen. Casmir Pulaski. In an era of increased awareness of the importance of ethnic traditions. Casmir Pulaski is remembered as a forerunner to the American way of bringing about meaningful and diverse change in this Nation. He typifies the combination of an intense devotion to an ancestral heritage and an overpowering commitment to democratic ideals which are the feelings which propelled the countless immigrants who colonized our shores to fight for their dreams of opportunity. progress. and freedom from oppression. As we all recall. Casmir Pulaski left his homeland to fight to preserve the independence of this Nation.
