  Mr. CARTER of Texas. Madam Speaker, I am honored to recognize Chief 
Warrant Officer 2 Jason Shaw, U.S. Army, Retired for the Congressional 
Veteran Commendation. His life and career reflect hard work, activism, 
and dedication to what is best for Central Texas.
  CW2 Shaw spent 20 years serving our country, spending time in both 
Iraq and Afghanistan. As a pilot, he was an invaluable asset to his 
unit, the task force, and the brigade. His contributions and dedication 
to our nation cannot be overstated. As a pilot he was invaluable and, 
at every step along the way, his talents and work ethic were devoted to 
the protection of our nation.
  Upon retirement from the Army, CW2 Shaw committed his energies to 
community service. He is a Life Member of VFW Post 10472 and is active 
in the Leander Chamber of Commerce. He has worked tirelessly to ensure 
residents have a rich quality of life by using his expert knowledge on 
the city's water supply and infrastructure to ensure the long-term 
growth of the city, which he holds near to his heart. His legacy speaks 
to the highest values we Texans hold dear.
  I proudly join CW2 Jason Shaw's friends, family, and colleagues in 
saluting his selfless service to the Army and Texas. He is a local 
treasure, a champion for others, and a fitting recipient of a 
Congressional Veteran Commendation.
