    Congressman Pedro R. Pierluisi Floor Statement as Prepared for Delivery H.R. 1726, to Award the Congressional Gold Medal to the 65th Infantry Regiment, known as the Borinqueneers May 19, 2014 Thank you. I rise in strong support of H.R. 1726, a bill that would award the Congressional Gold Medal to the United States Army’s 65th Infantry Regiment in recognition of its pioneering military service, devotion to duty, and many acts of valor in the face of adversity. The Regiment was composed largely of soldiers from the U.S. territory of Puerto Rico, and members of the unit are called “Borinqueneers”—which is derived from the Taíno word for Puerto Rico, meaning “land of the brave lord.” Since the term was first used over 60 years ago, coined by members of the Regiment on their way to Korea, it has become synonymous with honor, courage, redemption and pride. I want to begin by expressing my gratitude to Mr. Posey of Florida. Working with him on a bipartisan basis to move this bill forward has been a pleasure. I know that Congressman Posey, like me, feels a profound sense of responsibility to these veterans and their families. The surviving members of the Regiment are in the twilight of their lives, and so we hope our colleagues in the House and in the Senate, acting on behalf of a grateful nation, will see fit to honor the Borinqueneers while these humble heroes still walk among us. 1 Congressman Posey and I are not on this mission alone. We are working shoulder-to-shoulder with an army of individuals and organizations from Puerto Rico and the states.
