  Mr. MILLER of Florida. Madam Speaker, on behalf of the U.S. Congress, 
it is an honor for me to rise today in recognition of Paul T. Mobley, 
Sr., Special Agent with the Naval Criminal Investigative Service.
  Paul Mobley, Sr. has spent the last 24 years serving his country as 
both a Special Agent for the Naval Criminal Investigative Service and a 
Sergeant for the United States Marine Corps. After graduating from Troy 
University in 1984, Mr. Mobley began his career as a Patrol Officer 
with the Dougherty County Police Department. After being promoted to 
Lieutenant, Mr. Mobley was soon selected to join the prestigious 
criminal investigative service of the U.S. Navy.
  In 1996, Mr. Mobley was assigned to the Computer Crimes Investigation 
and Operations Unit of the NCIS Gulf Coast Field Office and was 
instrumental in establishing the unit's first computer forensics lab. 
Since 2002, he has specialized in cyber-related operations for the 
counter-terrorism and counter-intelligence communities. For 4 years, 
Mr. Mobley worked within the U.S. borders making our Nation more secure 
during the war on terror. While dutifully serving our country as an 
NCIS Special Agent, he has also faithfully served as President of the 
West Florida Home Education Support League and Assistant Scoutmaster of 
Troop 10 in Pensacola, Florida.
  In June of 2006, after completing the High Risk Operations Training 
Program at the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center in Glynco, GA, 
Mr. Mobley was called to serve his country yet again as an NCIS Special 
Agent in Kabul, Afghanistan. Mr. Mobley is now serving his third tour 
of duty in Afghanistan. The Department of the Army recently presented 
him with the Commander's Award for Civilian Service for ``exceptionally 
meritorious achievement and outstanding civilian service . . . in 
support of Operation Enduring Freedom.'' Upon completion of his second 
deployment, the Department of the Navy presented Mr. Mobley with the 
Expeditionary Medal from the U.S. Naval Criminal Investigative Service. 
Mr. Mobley continues to be a courageous soldier and vital part of the 
war against terrorism.
  Madam Speaker, on behalf of the U.S. Congress, I am proud to honor 
Mr. Paul T. Mobley, Sr. for his dedicated service to the community of 
northwest Florida and to the United States of America.
