                       TRIBUTE TO AUBREY GREGORY

  Mr. PAUL. Mr. President, I rise today to honor one of Louisville's 
finest, Louisville Metro Police Major Aubrey Gregory. Police work is an 
unquestionably difficult and dangerous job, but it is among the noblest 
callings. Each and every day, officers risk their lives to keep our 
communities safe. Officers such as Louisville Metro Police Major Aubrey 
Gregory meet the challenges they encounter every day with 
professionalism, class, and courage. Major Gregory joined the LMPD in 
1999 and leads Louisville Metro Police Special Operations Unit. Serving 
to keep the peace in Louisville during a time of uncertainty, Major 
Gregory has led his fellow officers with class and courage during this 
difficult time. Dedicated service from officers like Major Gregory 
during times of protest is important to keep protests peaceful instead 
of a riot. Major Gregory and his fellow officers deserve and have our 
respect and admiration. Major Gregory was shot on Wednesday night 
during the protest in Louisville. Fortunately, Major Gregory is 
expected to make a full recovery. I join my fellow Kentuckians in 
wishing Major Gregory a speedy recovery.
