  Mr. NEY. Mr. Speaker:
  Whereas, I hereby offer my heartfelt condolences to the family, 
friends, and fellow officers of James M. Feltis III; and
  Whereas, James M. Feltis III was a man committed to his family, a 
devoted husband to his wife of 21 years, and loving father to his six-
year-old daughter; and
  Whereas, James M. Feltis III was a member of St. Mary Catholic 
Church, the Fraternal Order of Police, and the Federal Law Enforcement 
Officers Association; and
  Whereas, James M. Feltis III had been a field training officer, a 
criminal investigator, and a member of the HAZMAT Response Team through 
his 11 years of service with the Pentagon Police Department; and
  Whereas, James M. Feltis III will be remembered for his ultimate 
sacrifice of self while protecting others, earning the Office of the 
Secretary of Defense Medal of Valor. His example of strength and 
courage will be forever remembered by those who knew him.
  Therefore, while I understand how words cannot express our grief at 
this most trying of times, I offer this token of profound sympathy to 
the family, friends, and colleagues of James M. Feltis III.
