Mr. GROTHMAN

Mr. GROTHMAN. Madam Speaker, I ask unanimous consent that all Members may have 5 legislative days in which to revise and extend their remarks and include extraneous material on this measure.

Mr. GROTHMAN. Madam Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume. I rise in support of this bill, which would name a post office in Wilson, North Carolina, for veteran Milton Fitch, Sr. Mr. Fitch served in the U.S. Army for nearly 5 years during World War II. He earned several medals and three battle stars and contributed to the success of the Red Ball Express, a convoy system that delivered supplies to Allied troops on the European warfront. After the war, Mr. Fitzgerald's journey of resiliency and determination continued. He became the first African-American letter carrier in the city of Wilson, North Carolina, since Reconstruction. This was a significant achievement. I support naming the post office in memory of Milton Fitch, Sr., and I encourage my colleagues to do the same. I reserve the balance of my time.

Mr. GROTHMAN. Madam Speaker, I encourage my House colleagues to support this bill honoring a great American war veteran and local public servant. I yield back the balance of my time.

Mr. GROTHMAN

Mr. GROTHMAN. Mr. Speaker, I move to suspend the rules and pass the bill (H.R. 1823) to designate the facility of the United States Postal Service located at 207 East Fort Dade Avenue in Brooksville, Florida, as the ``Specialist Justin Dean Coleman Memorial Post Office Building''.

Mr. GROTHMAN. Mr. Speaker, I ask unanimous consent that all Members may have 5 legislative days in which to revise and extend their remarks and include extraneous material on this measure.

Mr. GROTHMAN. Mr. Speaker, I yield 5 minutes to the gentleman from Florida (Mr. Bilirakis).

Mr. GROTHMAN. Mr. Speaker, I move to suspend the rules and pass the bill (H.R. 7180) to designate the facility of the United States Postal Service located at 80 1st Street in Kingsland, Arkansas, as the ``Kingsland `Johnny Cash' Post Office''.

Mr. GROTHMAN. Mr. Speaker, I yield 3 minutes to the gentleman from Wisconsin (Mr. Fitzgerald).

Mr. GROTHMAN. Mr. Speaker, I yield 3 minutes to the gentleman from Wisconsin (Mr. Steil).

Mr. GROTHMAN. Mr. Speaker, I have no further speakers, and I yield myself the balance of my time. Mr. Speaker, I would just like to make a little statement as well here to kind of follow up on what Mr. Steil said. For those of us who are familiar with the Wisconsin State Capitol, the statue of Christian Heg is an institution in the State of Wisconsin. It was horrific, and it shows the ignorance of the hard left in this country when, about 4 years ago, there was a riot, and they tore down the statue of Christian Heg. Hopefully, this will serve to bring even more fame to his great deeds and fame to the great Americans who fought during the Civil War. In any event, I am very pleased that Congressman Fitzgerald has decided to bring forth this bill. Mr. Speaker, I encourage my House colleagues to support this bill honoring a true American war hero, and I yield back the balance of my time.

Mr. GROTHMAN. Mr. Speaker, I move to suspend the rules and pass the bill (H.R. 7606) to designate the facility of the United States Postal Service located at 1087 Route 47 South in Rio Grande, New Jersey, as the ``Carlton H. Hand Post Office Building''.

Mr. GROTHMAN. Mr. Speaker, I ask unanimous consent that all Members may have 5 legislative days in which to revise and extend their remarks and include extraneous material on this measure.

Mr. GROTHMAN. Mr. Speaker, I yield 5 minutes to the gentleman from New Jersey (Mr. Van Drew).

Mr. GROTHMAN. Mr. Speaker, in closing, I encourage my House colleagues to support this bill honoring a great American war hero from the Greatest Generation, whose actions serve as a lasting inspiration to all of us who value freedom and courage. Mr. Speaker, I yield back the balance of my time.

Mr. GROTHMAN

Mr. GROTHMAN. Mr. Speaker, I move to suspend the rules and pass the bill (H.R. 5712) to designate the facility of the United States Postal Service located at 220 Fremont Street in Kiel, Wisconsin, as the ``Trooper Trevor J. Casper Post Office Building''.

Mr. GROTHMAN. Mr. Speaker, I ask unanimous consent that all Members have 5 legislative days in which to revise and extend their remarks and include extraneous material on this measure.

Mr. GROTHMAN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in support of H.R. 5712. This is for a true American hero. It is a bill to designate the post office in Kiel, Wisconsin, after Wisconsin State Trooper Trevor Casper. Trevor Casper is a shining example of dedication and service. Sadly, 9 years ago, he joined a growing list of men and women in law enforcement who have risked their lives to keep Wisconsin streets safer. Trevor was born in Sheboygan, Wisconsin, on May 21, 1993, to Kevin and Deborah. He graduated from Kiel High School in Wisconsin with the class of 2011, where he was active in wrestling, soccer, and coaching youth sports. After high school, Trevor pursued a degree in criminal justice at the Lakeshore Technical College, graduating in May 2014. During his time there, he was actively engaged in the color guard and served as the president of the LTC student government. It was clear Trevor was not just interested in a career but was passionate about making a difference in his community. Trevor's dream was to continue his education at the State Patrol Academy, which he did, successfully graduating December 18, 2014. Following his graduation, Trooper Casper was stationed at the State trooper base in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, where he continued to serve his community with honor and dedication. Tragically, on his first solo assignment, he made the ultimate sacrifice. On March 24, 2015, he was shot in Fond du Lac while apprehending a bank robbery and murder suspect. Though gravely wounded, Trooper Casper returned fire at the suspect, killing him and protecting those nearby from possible harm. Trooper Casper's bravery in the face of danger, his commitment to the upholding of law, and his willingness to protect our community were unwavering. Trooper Casper is a true hero, the best America has to offer. He deserves to be remembered and honored for his selfless service. His actions will always serve as a reminder of the values that he was raised in, in the Casper family, and the training he received through the Wisconsin State Patrol. Renaming the Kiel Post Office in his honor is a small but meaningful gesture to ensure that his legacy lives on in our hearts and the very fabric of our community. Mr. Speaker, I ask my colleagues to support the bill, and I reserve the balance of my time.

Mr. GROTHMAN. Mr. Speaker, in closing, Mr. Casper was just a great man. I strongly encourage my House colleagues to support this bill honoring a great American hero. I look forward to the day when we put his name on the Kiel Post Office. Mr. Speaker, I yield back the balance of my time.
