 HONORING THE FALLEN POLICE OFFICERS OF BUTTE-SILVERBOW COUNTY, MONTANA

  Mr. TESTER. Madam President, today I wish to honor the memory of 18 
of Butte, America's finest.
  Since 1892, 18 brave police officers have lost their lives in the 
line of duty protecting the people of Butte-Silverbow County, the most 
of any county in Montana.
  These men put the lives of others above their own, rushing into 
danger to keep their community safe, and paying the ultimate sacrifice 
as a result.
  I want to honor: William F. Jordan; Dennis W. Daly; Federick 
Kranbeck; Fred A. Palin; John J. Streb; Joseph A. Freshman; Charles E. 
Streb; Ivan W. Lincoln; James H. Pace; Bart J. McCarthy; Joseph E. 
Sage; Batt Arrigoni; Jeremiah J. Murphy; Thomas O'Neill; Nicholas 
Aleksich; Colin McMillan; Tom Monroe; and David V. Thomas and their 
families and loved ones who sacrificed so much as well.
  May their memories never be forgotten. May all current and future 
peace officers in Butte-Silver Bow, around Montana, and this Nation 
return home safe at the end of their watches.
