Earlier this year Congressman Emmer and I introduced legislation to honor the three Minnesota National Guardsmen who were tragically killed on December 5, 2019, when their helicopter experienced engine failure. Chief Warrant Officer Charles P. Nord was just 30 years old and led a full and happy life with his wife, Kaley, and their daughter, Lydia, and he was very excited for the arrival of his son, Jack. He found his calling as a medevac helicopter pilot and also as a crop sprayer, and often said he felt like he had landed his dream job. He is deeply missed by the many close friends and family he made in the service and in his community. H.R. 6220 would name the post office in Perham, Minnesota, in honor of Chief Warrant Officer Nord's service and sacrifice. It is my honor to memorialize him and his service this way. Madam Speaker, I urge my colleagues to support this bill.
