Joseph Booth of the Louisiana State Police. Mr. Booth celebrates his 
50th birthday on April 15th.
  Mr. Booth is known for his loyalty to friends and his commitment to 
his family, a warm smile and good sense of humor. Mr. Booth is a career 
law enforcement officer who followed in the footsteps of his father 
whom he loved very much in joining the Louisiana State Police rising 
through the ranks to lieutenant colonel. Mr. Booth is well respected 
nationally for his insights into law enforcement and the role law 
enforcement officers play in protecting our homeland. Throughout his 
career he has displayed rigorous intellect and sound judgment.
  For these reasons and more, I would like to extend the warmest best 
wishes to Lt. Col. Joseph Booth on this special day.
