                    in the house of representatives

                         Tuesday, June 6, 2006

  Mr. SESSIONS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor my fellow Texan and 
good friend, Chief of Staff of the Air Force GEN T. Michael ``Buzz'' 
Moseley, who received the high honor of being knighted during a 
ceremony at the British Embassy in Washington, DC on May 30.
  General Moseley was awarded the honorary knighthood due to his 
contributions to British-American relations during his tour of duty as 
the commander of the air war over Afghanistan and Iraq.
  In addition to being the Chief of Staff of the Air Force, General 
Moseley can now add the honorary title of ``Knight Commander of the 
British Empire'' to an already impressive service record. General 
Moseley becomes the next in a long line of some of our Nation's most 
impressive leaders and skilled military commanders to be so highly 
honored by our British allies including President Ronald Reagan, 
President Dwight D. Eisenhower, GEN Jimmy Doolittle, GEN Carl Spaatz, 
GEN Tommy Franks, and Secretary of State Colin Powell.
  I congratulate my friend General Moseley on his knighthood, and thank 
him for his outstanding service in leading the United States Air Force 
in its continuing operations in the global war on terrorism.

                          ____________________
