                 HONORING MISSISSIPPI'S FALLEN OFFICERS

  (Mr. GUEST asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mr. GUEST. Mr. Speaker, earlier this week, the 38th Annual National 
Peace Officers Memorial Service honored the men and women who paid the 
ultimate sacrifice upholding the rule of law and protecting the people 
of our great Nation.
  Last year, Mississippi lost five officers in the line of duty. I 
would like to honor them as we remember their service and sacrifice.
  Please join me in honoring Police Officer Emmett Paul Morris, 
Corporal Walter Zachery Moak, Patrolman James Kevin White, Patrol 
Officer LeAnn Simpson, and Police Officer Robert McKeithen.
  President Ronald Reagan once said there can be no more noble vocation 
than the protection of one's fellow citizens.
  May we remember these brave officers, their sacrifice to protecting 
our communities, and the sacrifice they made for the people who call 
Mississippi home.
