                 SOLDIER'S MEDAL FOR SGT. JERRY SEABAUGH

                                 ______


                            HON. IKE SKELTON

                              of missouri

                    in the house of representatives

                         Tuesday, March 7, 1995
  Mr. SKELTON. Mr. Speaker, my congratulations to Sfc. Jerry Seabaugh 
of Jefferson City, MO, who was recently awarded the prestigious 
Soldier's Medal, the Army's highest peace time medal for valor. 
Sergeant Seabaugh, a member of the Missouri National Guard, saved the 
life of State Representative Sue Shear from flooding waters in 
Jefferson City. Sergeant Seabaugh rescued Mrs. Shear from her car which 
was nearly submerged by the high water.
  This award, approved by the Secretary of the Army, is rarely given, 
and I know that the Members of this body join me in saying a job well 
done to Sergeant First Class Seabaugh. His heroism not only makes the 
Missouri National Guard proud, but all Missourians as well.
