Floor Speech

BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Mr. GUTHRIE. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor the life and service of Charles M. ``Charlie'' Hogan of Park City, Kentucky.

Mr. Hogan began his service in the U.S. Army and then proudly served in the U.S. Air Force for over twenty years. Mr. Hogan received an Air Force Commendation for his brave service in Vietnam. A champion for his fellow veterans, Mr. Hogan was awarded the Barren County Patriot Award in 2004. He spearheaded the effort to a veterans' memorial wall in Park City and made sure to invite me to attend the Veterans Day celebration my first year in Congress. He was also an active member of the Masonic Order, the International Union of Operating Engineers, the Mammoth Cave National Park Association, the Barren River Area Development District, and Park City United Methodist Church.

I join with Mr. Hogan's family and the Barren County community in remembering the life of an American patriot.
