                        Thursday, March 2, 2006

  Mr. LEWIS of Kentucky. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to give well 
deserved recognition to an extraordinary law enforcement professional 
serving in my district. Officer Michael R. Smith, an honorable U.S. 
Army Veteran, is continuing his spirit of public service as a civilian 
police officer in Radcliff, Kentucky. Radcliff is home to the legendary 
Fort Knox military installation.
  Officer Smith's actions, on duty and off, demonstrate a genuine 
concern and personal involvement in protecting safety and improving 
quality of life in his community. His abiding friendship with many of 
Radcliff's elderly citizens and attention to their needs is especially 
noteworthy.
  I would like to publicly thank Officer Smith, on behalf of his 
colleagues and the citizens of Radcliff, for the example he sets in 
performing his job far beyond the call of duty. His sense of public 
service and altruistic spirit personify the term ``Peace Officer.''
