               HONORING THE LIFE OF HARRY ARCHER BUZZETT

                           HON. NEAL P. DUNN

                    in the house of representatives

                        Wednesday, May 23, 2018

  Mr. DUNN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Harry Archer Buzzett who 
passed away peacefully at the age of 94 on April 7, 2018.
  Harry Buzzett is a decorated war veteran, devout Catholic, and 
dedicated family man.
  Harry graduated from West Point on June 6, 1944. On this date, Harry 
would also learn that his brother Julian Rexall Buzzett (``Rex'') was 
killed in action during the D-Day invasion. Harry fought in WWII, the 
Korean War, and the Vietnam War at the ranks of 2nd Lieutenant and 
later Full Colonel. During his 30 years of service, Harry received the 
Bronze Star (Valor), the Army Air Medal (Valor), and in 2014, Harry was 
awarded the French Legion of Honor.
  Harry Buzzett not only embodied a lifestyle of service while fighting 
for our country, but also back home (in the states) through dedication 
to his family and church.
  Harry married Catherine Neil Austin and together, the two of them 
would go on to raise six children. The Buzzett family lived in 
Massachusetts for several years, before moving back to their hometown 
in Franklin County, FL in 1985.
  Mr. Buzzett will be missed by many. May his service to our country 
always be remembered and venerated and may he rest in peace.
