  Mr. THOMPSON of Mississippi. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the 
distinguished life of Lieutenant Patrick Miller.
  Lieutenant Miller was commissioned a second lieutenant in the Marine 
Corps in 1961. As a Marine officer for over 23 years, Lt. Miller served 
multiple tours as an artilleryman with the 2nd and 3rd Marine 
Divisions, including two tours in Vietnam.
  Lieutenant Miller earned the Medal of Honor on December 18, 1965 in 
Vietnam. His other decorations include Meritorious Service Medal and 
Navy Commendation Medal.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in recognizing Lieutenant 
Patrick Miller for his service to our country.
