REMEMBRANCE OF D-DAY
Mr. SESSIONS. Mr. President, I thank the Senator from Georgia for his excellent works. Once again, he has shown he is one of the most eloquent Members of this body, if not the most eloquent. We are going to miss him. He still has a lot to do between now and the end of this session, but he has certainly done yeoman's service here. His tribute to those soldiers who were there on that special day many years ago is valuable to us all.
Mr. President, I had the opportunity to accompany former Senator Phil Gramm to Pointe du Hoc in Normandy a few years ago. Tears were in his eyes when he showed us exactly where the Texans went up the hill at Pointe du Hoc. It was an incredible achievement.
