                      Wednesday, February 3, 2021

  Mr. RICE of South Carolina. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor an 
extraordinary South Carolinian, Officer Adam Tack of the Horry County 
Police Department.
  Last night, Officer Tack was awarded the Law Enforcement Officer of 
the Year Award. Officer Tack puts his life at risk daily while 
upholding his oath to protect his community. He is a true hero.
  September 17, 2020, Officer Tack saved the lives of Liam and Levi 
Cannon trapped in a car sinking in the floodwaters of Hurricane Sally. 
He dove in the water and using his baton broke the window to pull the 
two children from the car. Tack only had minor injuries and all five 
Cannon family members survived.
  Madam Speaker, I join the people of Horry County in recognizing 
Officer Adam Tack. We thank him for his service and commitment to our 
community.
