Mr. Speaker, I support H.R. 3186 introduced by Mr. Clay of Missouri to recognize the volunteer work, the community service, and the heroic acts of Mr. Sammy L. Davis. As a young man in Vietnam, Mr. Davis risked his life under fire, to aid his fallen comrades. For his efforts he was awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor. In his later life and career, Mr. Davis remained devoted to examining and lecturing on issues concerning POW's and other matters of importance to veterans. It is fitting and proper to join Mr. Clay in honoring Mr. Davis by designating the Federal building in Overland, MO As the 'Sammy L. Davis Federal Building'.
