                    TRIBUTE TO CORPORAL PAUL NICHOLS

 Mr. SCHMITT. Mr. President, I rise today to honor Corporal 
Paul Nichols of Hartsburg, MO, and to thank him for his years of 
service to our State and great Nation. Over his time in the U.S. Army 
during the closing months of World War II through his discharge just 
prior to the Korean war, Corporal Nichols, then serving with the 48th 
Field Artillery Battalion, demonstrated excellence in his work as an 
electrical lineman and inspector for communication lines across Korea. 
Through both his time in our Republic's armed forces and his time at 
home, he more than demonstrated his capability.
  Corporal Paul Nichols is truly a member of the greatest generation 
and is an outstanding example of a Heartland Hero. I am truly grateful 
for his commitment to protecting our fellow Americans, am honored by 
his devotion, and know that my colleagues will join me in wishing him 
the best.
