                       TRIBUTE TO PATRICK SHEEHAN

  Mr. BARRASSO. Mr. President, I rise today to pay tribute to Patrick 
Sheehan, my military and veterans liaison. Patrick is a native of 
Casper and graduated from Natrona County High School and the University 
of Wyoming. For over 4 years, Patrick has been an invaluable member of 
my team in Wyoming. Patrick is a veteran, having spent 12 years in the 
Air Force as a security forces defender. He served across the country 
and around the world with multiple Middle East deployments, including 
Iraq and Afghanistan. He later served as a member of the Wyoming 
Veterans Commission.
  These experiences paved the way for his service to veterans across 
Wyoming. Patrick has an ability to connect with veterans and get them 
the help they need, while cutting through the bureaucratic redtape. In 
his time in my office, Patrick worked over 1,000 cases helping veterans 
and their families across and in every corner of Wyoming. As he moves 
on to his next journey, he leaves behind a legacy of unyielding 
advocacy for the Wyoming men and women who have answered the call to 
serve their country. I cannot thank Patrick enough for his hard work, 
dedication and his service to Wyoming and our Nation.
