Thank you very much, Mr. Chairman and madame. Thank you very much for appearing before us today. We greatly appreciate your appearance.
Madame, I also want to thank the United States for the liberation of the Netherlands in World War II. As you know, they liberated the southern part in Limburg, where my parents were from. The Kentucky brigade did the part, and we want to thank you very much for that.
I'd like my first question to be, what is your definition of a veteran in the United States?
