                    RECOGNIZING SERGEANT OLAV CHANEY

  (Mr. CRANK asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. CRANK. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Sergeant Olav 
Chaney, of the Colorado Springs Police Department, for his 35 years of 
service to our community.
  I had the pleasure of taking Sergeant Chaney and his family last 
night on a Capitol tour, and a delightful family he has.
  Sergeant Chaney has also served us in the United States Army. He has 
become a recognized leader within the police department, and Sergeant 
Chaney helps lead the Downtown Area Response Team and the Homeless 
Outreach Team, where he serves our vulnerable population with 
compassion and with grace.
  Sergeant Chaney has also served as Santa Claus for the Toys for Tots 
program. He is part of the honor guard, and he is an active participant 
in the Cadet Explorers program.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask my colleagues in Congress to join me in thanking 
Sergeant Olav Chaney for his dedication and his service to the Pikes 
Peak region, to Colorado, and to America.
