  Mr. REICHERT. Madam Speaker, today I'd like to recognize Washington 
State Trooper John Garden for being named the 2008 District One Trooper 
of the Year in the State of Washington.
  As a former law enforcement officer in Washington State, I know the 
hard work and dedication it takes to earn such an honor, and I thank 
Trooper Garden for his tireless service and sacrifice for the 
communities he serves in Pierce and Thurston Counties.
  I am confident that Trooper Garden will continue to serve the people 
of Washington State with great respect and continue his record of 
strong leadership within the law enforcement community. On behalf of 
the House of Representatives, I extend my deepest gratitude for his 
service and sacrifice.
