So I wanted to give some examples of types of persons that were involved and where they live. I was looking through this. and I rer.lize that one of them lived near the Vento homestead on Burr Street in St. Paul. and someone that had fought for 15 years in this conflict. had fought. in fact. in the French conflict before that. and he wrote here. "I arrived in the United States on September 26. 1986. after 10 years in a refugee camp." So the total service here in terms of conflict and military service to the United States. of course. was some 15 years. 10 years in refugee camp. and then has a very difficult time learning a new language and culture. But he is working as a janitor. and he would like to have. and he is going to be here for the rest of his life. and he is very supportive. obviously. of cittzenship and the honor. I think really in this case we do an honor by recognizing people that have done this type of service. and I go through this over and over again. but that there are many others.
