  Mr. BASS. Mr. Speaker, I rise to honor Staff Sergeant Randy Scott 
Rosenberg of Berlin, New Hampshire. He bravely served the Army's 
Company B, 1st Squadron, 9th Cavalry, supporting Operation Iraqi 
Freedom, and was considered a Task Force ``All-American'' soldier. 
Staff Sgt. Rosenberg made the ultimate sacrifice to protect his country 
and aid the Iraqi people when a vehicle-based improvised explosive 
device detonated near a U.S. checkpoint in Khalidiyah, Iraq, on January 
24, 2004.
  I ask my colleagues to join me in honoring Staff Sergeant Randy Scott 
Rosenberg and our other servicemen and women who have courageously 
given their own lives in order to

protect and defend the democracy we enjoy in America and to extend the 
freedoms that come with democracy to those who live in fear and 
oppression worldwide.
