                RECOGNIZING THE HEROISM OF EVAN LANGSTON

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. JOHN BOOZMAN

                              of arkansas

                    in the house of representatives

                        Wednesday, July 28, 2010

  Mr. BOOZMAN. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor Mr. Evan Langston, 
for his act of heroism. His call to action in an emergency situation 
saved the lives of his fellow citizens in Franklin County, Arkansas.
  Mr. Langston was the first to arrive at an accident on highway 309 in 
April and helped the passengers get out of the burning car. He 
successfully helped a mother and her children get out of dangers way. 
By doing so, he saved their lives and I would like to ask my colleagues 
to join me in recognizing Mr. Langston with the honor he deserves.
  By acting as a good samaritan, he prevented a great tragedy within 
his community, and for that I wish to honor him with my appreciation. 
Mr. Langston's selfless actions have not gone unnoticed.
