                             General Leave

  Mr. WALKER. Mr. Speaker, I ask unanimous consent that all Members may 
have 5 legislative days in which to revise and extend their remarks and 
include extraneous material on the bill under consideration.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the 
gentleman from North Carolina?
  There was no objection.
  Mr. WALKER. Mr. Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may conclude.
  Mr. Speaker, I rise today in support of H.R. 4946, a bill to name the 
post office at 1075 North Tustin Street in Orange, California, in honor 
of U.S. Army Specialist Trevor Win'E.
  Trevor Win'E was born in 1981, in Orange, California. Specialist 
Win'E enlisted in the Army shortly after the 9/11 terrorist attacks to 
train as a petroleum supply specialist.
  In 2003, he was set to deploy to South Korea but requested to, 
instead, deploy with his unit to Iraq, a request the Army granted. One 
year later, he was killed when his convoy encountered an IED attack in 
Tikrit, Iraq, causing fatal injuries.
  Today, we honor Specialist Trevor Win'E's bravery and sacrifice for 
our Nation with a small but lasting symbol of our gratefulness and 
respect.
  Mr. Speaker, I urge my colleagues to support this bill, and I reserve 
the balance of my time.
  Mr. SARBANES. Mr. Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume.
  Mr. Speaker, I am pleased to join my colleagues in consideration of 
H.R. 4946, to designate the facility of the United States Postal 
Service located at 1075 North Tustin Street in Orange, California, as 
the Specialist Trevor A. Win'E Post Office.
  Mr. Speaker, I yield such time as he may consume to the gentleman 
from California (Mr. Correa) to tell us more about Trevor Anthony 
Win'E.
  Mr. CORREA. Mr. Speaker, I am honored to rise today in support of 
H.R. 4946.
  Freedom is not free. All gave some, and many made the ultimate 
sacrifice for our country and for our freedom. Army Specialist Trevor 
Anthony Win'E, one of my constituents, made the ultimate sacrifice. I 
am privileged today to introduce this bill to name the United States 
Post Office at 1075 North Tustin Street in Orange, California, after 
Army Specialist Trevor Anthony Win'E.
  Trevor was born on September 24, 1981, the youngest of three 
children, to Rick and Deborah Win'E. He attended Calvary Chapel High 
School in Santa Ana, my hometown, graduating in the year 2000. His 
family and close friends recall Trevor as a compassionate and devout 
young man, always willing to help, always willing to lend a hand.
  Trevor was indeed a man of strong convictions who wanted to serve our 
country. Just months after the 9/11 attacks on our country, Trevor 
enlisted in the U.S. Army on May 1, 2002.
  After basic training, he was trained as a petroleum supply 
specialist. He was assigned to the Army's 24th Quartermaster Supply 
Company at Fort Lewis, Washington, where he had a key role in multiple 
training operations. According to Lieutenant Colonel John Pratt, 
commander of the 24th Quartermaster Supply Company, Trevor was 
dedicated to his fellow soldiers.
  In November 2003, Trevor's company was scheduled to deploy to Iraq, 
but Trevor was assigned to move to South Korea instead. He, of course, 
requested he deploy and serve alongside his fellow servicemembers in 
Iraq. Trevor was granted his request and continued to serve with his 
company, with his coworkers in Iraq.
  In Tikrit, Iraq, Trevor was in the lead truck of a convoy, serving as 
a turret gunner. Unfortunately, the convoy was attacked by multiple 
improvised explosive devices and Trevor suffered severe injuries. The 
following day, on May 1, 2004, 2 years to the date of his enlistment, 
Trevor died. He was 22 years young.
  Trevor was proud of his military service and wanted to serve in a 
capacity critical to the operations of a fighting force. He answered 
the call of duty after our Nation was attacked. Naming the post office 
after Trevor is a fitting tribute to his service and sacrifice to our 
great country.
  Mr. Speaker, I urge my colleagues to support H.R. 4946.
  Mr. SARBANES. Mr. Speaker, actually, I have no further speakers. I 
want to thank the gentleman for his powerful words about a life well 
and honorably lived.
  Mr. Speaker, I urge passage of H.R. 4946, and I yield back the 
balance of my time.
  Mr. WALKER. Mr. Speaker, I urge adoption of the bill, and I yield 
back the balance of my time.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The question is on the motion offered by the 
gentleman from North Carolina (Mr. Walker) that the House suspend the 
rules and pass the bill, H.R. 4946.
  The question was taken.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. In the opinion of the Chair, two-thirds 
being in the affirmative, the ayes have it.
  Mr. WALKER. Mr. Speaker, on that I demand the yeas and nays.
  The yeas and nays were ordered.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Pursuant to clause 8 of rule XX, further 
proceedings on this motion will be postponed.
