                      Tuesday, September 20, 2005

  Mr. SHIMKUS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Edwardsville Police 
Officer Charles Kohlberg.
  Officer Kohlberg recently took heroic actions to save the life of 18-
year-old Megan Few. Miss Few's airway became obstructed as she was 
eating lunch at Edwardsville High School. Officer Kohlberg applied the 
Heimlich maneuver and saved Miss Few's life.
  Along with the Few family and the City of Edwardsville, I am pleased 
to extend my gratitude and appreciation to Officer Kohlberg for his 
heroic efforts. May God bless.
