  SHERIFF MIKE BROWN, SAFE SURFIN' FOUNDATION, AND MOOSE INTERNATIONAL

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. BOB GOODLATTE

                              of virginia

                    in the house of representatives

                      Tuesday, November 12, 2013-

  Mr. GOODLATTE. Mr. Speaker, I am delighted to share news of the 
efforts that the Safe Surfin' Foundation in Bedford County, Virginia 
recently made in support of the wounded warriors participating in the 
H.E.R.O. (Human Exploitation Rescue Operatives) Child Rescue Corps. I 
want to express my thanks to the Safe Surfin' Foundation and Bedford 
County Sheriff Mike Brown for stepping forward to go above and beyond 
to serve in a special time of need.
  Sheriff Brown enlisted the Safe Surfin' Foundation to work with Moose 
International to supply computers and monitors for the military 
veterans selected to participate in the H.E.R.O. Child Rescue Corps 
training at Oak Ridge National Laboratory in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. 
Thanks to such generosity, these special men and women who served with 
distinction in our military will be able to continue serving our 
country by protecting our most innocent citizens--our children--from 
criminals on the Internet. Their introduction to the highly specialized 
training required to do their work would not have been possible if not 
for Sheriff Brown's timely action and the collaborative help of the 
Safe Surfin' Foundation and Moose International on the IT front.
  The Safe Surfin' Foundation has dutifully earned an international 
reputation as a leader in prosecuting child predators. It is fitting 
that the organization stepped forward to offer assistance to the 
H.E.R.O. Child Rescue Corps as it joins the worldwide drive to fight 
child exploitation, child abuse, and human trafficking. The brave 
wounded warriors who will be trained will be the latest heroes in the 
prosecution and imprisonment of individuals who would dare commit 
heinous crimes against children.
  I highly commend the selfless work of Sheriff Brown, who is my 
constituent and friend, and the Safe Surfin' Foundation for their 
support of the newest line of law enforcement officers fighting crime 
on the Internet.
