           HONORING TERRE HAUTE POLICE OFFICER BRENT D. LONG

  (Mr. BUCSHON asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mr. BUCSHON. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor Terre Haute Police 
Officer Brent D. Long. Officer Long was killed in the line of duty on 
July 11, 2011, while assisting to serve a felony warrant.
  A proud member of the Terre Haute, Indiana, Police Department for 6 
years as a K-9 handler and a member of the department's SWAT team, 
Officer Long was 34 years old.
  Terre Haute has lost one of its finest citizens, and the community 
will forever be indebted to Officer Long's service. His sacrifice and 
valor should be commended, and I would like to offer my most heartfelt 
condolences to Officer Long's family, friends, and to the Terre Haute 
Police Department, who have lost one of their own.

                          ____________________
