             CONGRATULATING LIEUTENANT COLONEL SEAN MORROW

  (Mr. ROSKAM asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. ROSKAM. Mr. Speaker, I would like to congratulate Lieutenant 
Colonel Sean Morrow, a constituent of the Sixth District of Illinois.
  On June 19, Sean will be taking command of the United Nations 
Security Battalion in the Joint Security Area of the Demilitarized Zone 
on the Korean Peninsula. This unit is the most forward-deployed on the 
peninsula and stands on the front lines of freedom 24 hours a day, 7 
days a week, facing the North Korean People's Army eye to eye in 
defense of democracy and our way of life.
  As the son of a Korean war company commander myself, I am honored 
that my constituent is taking the helm of this command at such a 
crucial time. Sean is a warrior-scholar. A Ph.D. candidate in 
international relations at the University of Chicago, he is committed 
to protecting the United States on the battlefield but also rigorously 
studying the pressing national security challenges we face and their 
solutions. He has dedicated his life and his career to keeping our 
Nation safe.
  Mr. Speaker, I wish Sean, his wife Meghan, and their three children 
God's very best, and I thank him for his service.
