     RESCUE EFFORTS AT THE OKLAHOMA CITY BOMBING ON APRIL 19, 1995

                                 ______


                         HON. E. CLAY SHAW, JR.

                               of florida

                    in the house of representatives

                         Wednesday, May 24, 1995
  Mr. SHAW. Mr. Speaker, recently, America has been faced with great 
tragedy. America as a whole has been greatly affected by the bombing of 
the Edward R. Murrah federal building in Oklahoma City. I am sure you 
all join me in mourning the loss of those Americans whom we lost, and 
praying for this tragedy's survivors to recover as best they can from 
this injustice.
  The Metro Dade Urban Search and Rescue Team has been a great aid to 
the unfortunate victims of the Oklahoma City bombing, and I would like 
to take this time to thank them. As you may remember this is the same 
group of fearless workers who gave us Floridians so must support in 
recovering from Hurricane Andrew.
  Oftentimes, while grieving the loss of disaster's victims, we forget 
how courageous and fearless these team members are. I am not only 
grateful but very proud that you are member of my community. Thank you.
