  Mrs. HARSHBARGER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor my constituent 
SSGT. James ``Rex'' Shoun. It was my honor to pin Staff Sergeant James 
``Rex'' Shoun for his service to the U.S. Air Force.
  SSGT. Shoun of Elizabethton, Tennessee enlisted in basic training 
which took him from Lackland, TX to Lowery, CO, and onward to Thailand 
as a member of the 635th Munition Maintenance Squadron.
  He returned to the U.S. to receive additional training as security 
police and deployed to Texas, Okinawa, and Guam where he was 
responsible for guarding B52 strategic bomber aircraft and their 
munitions.
